Hello Everyone, Happy 2009!
We had our holiday party the first day we were back from the holiday break. It went very well. The students enjoyed the time together. We have been working on many things since we have returned from the break. We are working on learning how to make a power point presentation and learning how to add information from the research that we are doing about the presidents. They will be sharing these in the classroom as soon as we are finished. They are enjoying how to use the program and tools that are available. They are even teaching me some new skills on the program.
We are beginning a story about Rosa Parks. I want them to learn about the history and begin to understand some of the challenges that others have faced. We are watching the video called Our Friend Martin about Martin Luther King, Jr.
We will starting the tryouts for the spelling bee. We also had some students test for the Math Knowledge competition.
Thank you to all who attended the winter concert. The students did a terrific job!
Have a great day!
Ms. Hagen
