Check this out! QR Codes at Richmond School!

Ms. Simpson is getting the hang of using her iPads in the library. She has just discovered how to use QR Codes and has been making scavenger hunts around the school for her GATERS class. The next projects include making a book hunt for Rm 14 to follow and adding QR codes to our library books.

Casper from Rm 2 has created a quiz for children to enter during the week. See if you know the answers. Casper will put the answers on the blog at the end of the week and you can see how great you were!
