Poetry Day

World Poetry Day is on March 21, which is Sunday for the year 2010. That's why we celebrate it today. In class, each of you will read a poem of your favorite. Then we can share and discuss about some poems. If we still have time, we can do another activity which is drawing picture of your poem or create and decorate your poem page. I put here an example of a poem page

Science Fair

Our school had Science Fair last Wednesday. There are a lot of cool projects in three topics of Physical Science, Earth Science & Life Science. Students chose topics last October and turned in this January. All projects made on board with an abstract to go with. The Judge worked from 4 to 5pm and the Fair was from 6 to 7pm. Though it was chilly and raining slightly, still many parents and students came in. Following are some facts about the Fair:

Principal awards:
- Which parachute is best for an egg?
- Do Debbie Meyer green bags really work?
- Fruit batteries
- Weekday vs. weekend: Which one of these has the most effect on the blood glucose of a person with type 1 diabetes?
- What bread molds the fastest?

Most projects, including winning ones, on or relating to food and and fruits. Here just to name a few:
- Fruit batteries
- What brand of white bread molds the fastest?
- Spoiled Rotten!
- Got milk?
- How strong is your sandwich bag?

Interesting/strange ideas:

Everything is possible, everything is seeable

I found this website is very useful for any teacher and prospective teacher. There are videos for any topics and subject areas and any grade levels. Anything you can think of,even persuasive writing, is being visualized. Isn't it great?
