Our Number eBooks

The children worked very hard on their first, individual, eBook and I wanted to be sure that everyone was able to see that hard work. Here are the links to the wonderful creations that were put together in a relatively short amount of time.

We utilized the application My Story for this eBook. We are also using this for our portfolios.

We are Thankful

Today, we read the story of how Thanksgiving began. Sarah Hale wrote several letters to the presidents of our country. All said no, that is until president Lincoln told her yes. If you are interested in seeing the story we read, check out the following link: True Story of Thanksgiving.

We compiled our reasons for being thankful today. First, we wrote in our journals and discussed our answers with our friends. We then put them together in a video. We hope you enjoy our video, we are thankful.

Election Day!

It is time to vote. We spent part of the morning talking about elections, voting, and how/why people do this in our country. We used a website to talk more about the presidential nominees.
The kids were then able to join BES and vote for their choice. We went to our library and voted on iPads. Here is the site we used to vote:

We will find out the results tomorrow. We were able to study the candidates, make a choice, vote, and either share our choice with others or choose to keep it private. It was a fun day!
