Our Year in a Picture
I still can’t believe the year is over. I will be forever grateful for the overwhelming generosity of ORAU. The students next year better be ready because it is going to be hard to top what these kids did this year. The picture above shows the connections we made over the year:
Weekly Epals Letters (France, Germany, Australia, Brazil, California, Kansas, South Africa, Kenya, and South Wales)
Videos to Australia and Japan
Skype with France and Georgia
Letters from the Philippines, Montana, and South Korea
Story Writing with Turkey and Kansas
In Three Words
Every week, Good Morning America does a segment called “In Three Words” and like last year the students and I made a similar video. The students got three words to tell what they were going to miss about Rocky Hill. Take a look:

Bully Videos
Bullying is a problem at every school. The students decided to make videos to show kids how to handle different situations. I was really proud of their effort. Take a look:

Take a look at 125 students walking into school as one person. This was the intro we made for their “End of the Year” DVD.
