Utah Compose Job Shadow Assignment

Posted on November 24, 2014 by Ms Emily

I found this really fun job shadow video that include some helpful tips:

All 7th and 8th grade students need to complete the following essay on Utah Compose. Here are the steps to get started:

Open a browser (aka, get on the internet)

http://utahcompose.com

log in (it’s your SIS student number, with three 000 added in front of the SIS#, for both log in and password, then you can change it)

Go to keyboarding or digital literacy (which ever you currently have)

Press the practice tab and find ‘Job Shadow Experience’

I have uploaded the job shadow reflection form if you would like to use it as a pre-write.

When you begin your writing you are welcome to copy and paste from your reflection form. You may also copy and paste from a word processing program. If you want to finish working on it later click “save & quite.” Otherwise, you can submit your work using the “submit” button.

Let me know if you have questions! egoddard@mariamontessoriacademy.org
