We are very excited because Miss Ale in Argentina has invited us to participate in a collaborative voicethread project with her Grade 6 group in a couple of weeks time. Today in class we practised using voicethread and we made a quick class newsletter. Great fun!

Mrs Geel visits - from the USA
We had an exciting visitor from the USA today – Mrs Geel, who teaches Grade 3 at Dutch Nek School in New Jersey. (Her outgoing class was linked to our class. They interviewed their grandparents after hearing about our project and they wrote comments in our blogs). We had a great time hearing about schools in the USA and how they operate. Mrs Geel brought a lovely children’s book along about President Barak Obama, as a gift from her class to our class. She read portions from it and showed us how Barak Obama’s parents and grandparents stressed the importance of education when he was growing up. Thank you for a wonderful visit, Mrs Geel.
At the end of her visit the class broke into spontaneous song singing a song they had just learned in drama!
