New Amsterdam to New York
We read On the Day Peter Stuyvesant Came To New York by Arnold Lobel (one of my very favorite books) among others and made a list of all the symbols and then they used Hyperstudio to create a computer drawing of that symbol.
Alice and Greta by Steve Simmons
Great book to talk about how to be kind to others, and to contrast/compare characters. We also read Cake Girl by David Lucas, and then made a list of how to be a good person to others.
Looking at Me by Walter Dean Myers
We made an “I am” list poem after reading the new WDM book.
What is the Internet?
Students visualized the metaphor of a web site as one single family house and the Internet as a large apartment building.
