Network issues

Tom,I am glad to here this issue isn't quadrant based. Being in the northwest quadrant, I too have had several problems consistently accessing the internet in my lab. The last 2 Mondays have not been fun at all, and using Discovery Oneplace is problematic as I think my use in the lab is again overloading the server, which has half of my computers accessing the other half frustrated with blank windows.GwynnSee More

Network Problems

This may not be the place to raise this issue, BUT-The last two Mondays (11/2/09 and 11/9/09) the district network has had significant issues preventing staff and studnet logins.

Simple Lesson with a quick YouTube

I read Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs by Judi Barrett aloud to 1-5th and then we watched the new movie trailer as posted on YouTube. This was followed by whole group discussion about the similarities and differences of the book vs the movie. Since discussion is a focus during our professional development, each group also spent time doing Think/Pair/Share about the question: "Would it be very cool or very awful to have all of our food fall out of the sky?" With more time we could have done a…See More
