What an exciting month this has been. For the last two weeks students have been presenting their Propaganda Power Point Projects. WOW! I am continually blown away by what the students are able to create and their creative ideas. We have some budding sales people in our classroom as well. My favorite projects were one's where students made their own video commercials. What a creative use of technology incorporated into the power points.
This week we finished up our reading on Animal Farm and learned that some political ideals start off with good intentions, but end in exploitation and disaster. Many times our conversations diverged to our own society and events occurring today. It was wonderful to see student's making connections and their horizons broadened!
We also spent this week taking our fourth and final interim assessment. For more information regarding your child's progress or if you have any questions about the final interim assessment, please feel free to contact me at jgordon@cologneacademy.org.
Good Luck to all next week on your reading MCA test!
