Do you find that you can’t study well in silence or in the cacophony of your classroom? Well then Pandora should be the app for you. Listen to stations that fit your preference and study on. The app is free and available to most Android and Apple devices all you need is WiFi, which is available at the library. So come on down the library is open during breaks on most school days. ​

Fellow Ayuyus, I am here today to tell you about the amazing wattpad. Wattpad is an app that allows you to not only download and read FREE books, written by new, creative writers out there, but it also allows you to write books of your own. All you have to do is download the app onto your phone (or whatever device you have), create your very own wattpad account and start downloading or writing your books. Easy right?! And did I mention it’s FREE? Hope ya’ll like this new app.

WhatsApp- Attendance is important but sometimes, when it is warranted, a student needs to miss class. But just because a student does not go to class does not mean that the learning stops. So when you miss class  - you miss work, and that’s a problem!   One fast and convenient way to find out what you missed in class is WhatsApp. WhatsApp is not only a great way to stay connected with your friends virtually, but also educationally. Use WhatsApp or Messenger or SnapChat to stay updated with class work during the days you are gone.

I have two questions for you: First is do you need oxygen to survive, and do you wish to graduate from high school?  If you answered yes to this questions, then you need to know about Google Docs.  Google Doc is just like a word doc except it originates in The Cloud.  Google Docs is easy to use, saves automatically and can be shared with your classmates and/or teacher.  How do you get this incredible app?  Easy - you already have it!  It is all part of your Kagman High gmail package.  Not sure how to access your gmail?  Or forgot your password?  No worries - just ask Mrs. Ornes.
