Homework for next week - New Year's Resolutions!

It was fun seeing everyone today! Our homework is to write at least TWO new year's resolutions! Please make a comment on this blog post to let us know what your resolutions are. Check the first comment to see Christie's.

 Also, you can check HERE to see your last year's resolutions. Did you keep any of them?

 Next week Christie won't be here, but Graeme will be. You are going to work on making an outline for your VoiceThread project, so bring a computer for your internet research. As a reminder, here is what people have decided to research:

Natsuko: different kinds of ice skating jumps
Maya: what different religions believe happens to people after they die
Angus: different board game categories
Jojo: different types of reptiles/amphibians
Sophie: Different kinds of animated movies (OR different kinds of special effects used in movies [like how do they make it rain in movies] - she is still debating)
Richie: Different kinds of skateboards, their associated tricks and famous riders
Nozomi: Basketball as it was when first invented, as it was about 30 years ago, and as it is today.
Ren: Something connected to fishing - maybe different kinds of baits and lures
Moni: ???

We are also going to have 2 guest class members - remember Reina and Leola from Wakayama? - who are going to do VoiceThread projects!

Reina: Jobs for Canadian girls after high school and university [salaries and education]
Leola: The slaughtering of Dolphins and Whales in Taiji, Wakayama

January 11 - Happy New Year!

Hi everybody! Just in case you were wondering, Kidz Group is meeting today!! We're going to discuss our VoiceThread plans, so bring your ideas and we'll get to work :-)
