Parental Guidance
We will be using Pear Deck as an external resource in this class. There will be two separate Pear Deck lessons. Pear Deck allows teachers to create interactive lessons in order to keep students involved and engaged during class. No account creation or login is required. I will provide the links to the Pear Deck lessons and the student simply needs to click on the link to access the interactive content. Will will also be using Google Forms as an external resource in this class. Google Forms will be used once during class for the student to submit their newspaper article topic and title selection. No account or login is required. I will provide the Google Form link and the students simply needs to click on the link to access and fill out the three question form to submit their topic idea.
