We have some wonderful special area teachers at Rocky Hill and last Thursday their hard work paid off. Ms. Boyd and Mrs. Bertolini applied and won a grant that brought the Wooden Strings Theater to our school. The company did a puppet making class with each 4th and 5th grade class, worked with 3rd graders on a performance, and put on their own show of Anansi: An African Tale. The students loved making puppets and the show so much, we decided to make our own puppet shows. The students are working on the videos and will be posting them to their blogs.

The students got a special present when they returned from break, a Christmas card from Bulgaria. Each student received a card with a message on it from their ePal from across the globe. Even though the holidays were over, the students got to relive what makes that time so special.

My new favorite app is Educreations. It is very similar to ShowMe (which we love to use in math) but you are able to get pictures straight from Dropbox and add pages. The students can make their own lessons on a whiteboard, save it on the website, and embed into their blogs. Take a look at Madeline’s lesson on similes and metaphors.
