[CASL-L] First Chapter Fridays--High School?

[Barbara Johnson]

I started a Google slides and shared with staff so they can pick a Friday,
record a video, and embed in the slides.
I created a slide for each week left in the year and shared it with
EVERYONE on staff. I am hoping to get everyone in the building and District
Admin involved in the project.

I am happy to collaborate with grades 3-5!
