Cakes...Money...Cakes...Money! Thanks!
Oh my what a day! We had a great oovoo session with our Burlington buddies, Mrs. Brucker's class, and three classes from Alabama. We are really getting some great first hand information about our SE states. There isn't a textbook that could do what we have been doing! Technology rocks!! It was great to see Mrs. Davis, Preston's mom, drop in the other day and share the North Carolina skype session as well.
Speaking of SE states. Students have their SE states and Capitals test tomorrow. Most of them know the states and capitals, but need to work on the location of the states. Test will be the same matching format as last time. Study, Study!
Tomorrow is a half day. Kids are dismissed at noon. Don't forget to come back from 6-8 though for our school winter carnival. Stop by the cake walk and say hello. And have you seen the baskets in the hallway? Oh my goodness...I want to win them ALL! Very cool stuff. And, it could be all yours when they draw a lucky ticket that you purchase for $1. It only takes one ticket to win! Could be you...or me!!! :0) Our basket is CANDYPALOOZA! Got a sweet tooth...you are going to love that one!
Don't forget to bring in your donated cakes tomorrow. Students receive $500 for each cake or batch of goodies they bring in. Thanks to those that already brought theirs in! YUMMY!! 4th grade parents ROCK!
Have a wonderful evening!

Skype with North Carolina.
Yesterday, we had the privilege of using a new "oovoo" type Web 2.0 tool called Skype with our Pen Pals in North Carolina. They are currently studying weather and had fun asking us about our snow and snow activities. We, on the other hand are currently studying the SE states so, we asked them questions about life in North Carolina. Fun and awesome learning for both sides!! Wow!
