Week of January 27th

Brrrr.... it's cold up here in New England!!  Our classroom is heating up with some great projects!!  Our language arts classes have been busy creating propaganda advertisements.  The kids have had a great time creating commercials for their "products".  I'll try to post a few videos after they have presented next week. 

We're still studying Ancient Greece.  This week will focus on Sparta vs. Athens.  We're talking about how our American democracy was modeled from Athen's democracy.  Students will be doing  a lot of reading about the two societies and  creating crossword puzzles of vocabulary terms and real estate guides for living in ancient Greece.
