You have heard of Kid President... Meet Kid Teacher

Have you seen Kid President's uplifting videos?  If you are saying no, you must check them out on Youtube.  The class got to know him when I introduced them to Genius Hour.





We were inspired by Kid President's style and message so the class made their own video.  This one is focused on Tips for Taking the Test.  We are taking the New York ELA test next week, so we will have to take our own advice.




One of our students made her own version using the ShowMe app on her iPad at home!  Great job!

   In Social Studies we are studying a Winter Olympic sport of our choice. We are making newsletters.We got information from computers and information packets. We use the information to answer questions. When we are done answering the questions we forge all the answers into one paragraph or more. We put our paragraphs with paragraphs we already made on either Sochi,Russia,or the winter Olympics. 

     On Thursday an author came to visit our school. His name is David A. Adler and he used to be a Math teacher. He told us how he comes up with his books.He is the author of the Cam Janson series. Cam Janson is based on a boy with photographic memory who was in David A. Adler’s school. He also told us about some of his books and how writing based on someone you know makes you capital of many things.



    On Friday it was Rockland Read-In Day. We brought some books from our houses and got to wear pajamas.We did other subjects to but we tried to read between classes.

Mrs. Bader came back to read to us.
