Jeanette Merola and Janet Renganeschi’s sixth-grade class at Udall was recently chosen as a Kidsday Class of the Week, and were visited by “Newsday” representative Patrick Mullooly to prepare.
Participating in this children’s journalism program, the Udall students have been eagerly creating, researching and developing articles for publication at the end of July. With the use of student Chromebooks, they are implementing Google Docs to share information with each other, collaborating on ideas and receiving feedback from their teachers prior to submitting their articles.
“This is an exciting opportunity for the students to showcase their writing and research skills,” said Renganeschi.
