What a wonderful Friday and week it has been! The children did their first Family Message Journal entry in their yellow notebook so be looking for that in their back packs. There is a note that goes along with it but basically you want to read the letter and then write back to your child. The Journal then returns to school on Monday and will boomerang back to you again on Friday.
The highlight of our day though was the Mystery Skype! They knew that we were Skyping a classroom in the building but did not know which one. We learned about Skype etiquette, brainstormed questions to ask and assigned roles to everyone. Some people were researchers and used a map to narrow down the field of classrooms. We had a greeter, 8 questioners, 2 responders, and a videographer (Next time we do it we will add photographer). The class ended up being Ms. Evan's third grade and we got it before they found out who we were!! Next week we will practice with one more classroom here at Evening Street before we head out into the big, wide world.
