Grab your Hat and Read with the Cat!

Read Across America 2013-
In celebration of NEA's Read Across America and Theodore Giesel's birthday on March 2, Mrs. O'Risky's readers are logging 1 mile per book point, leaving from the Statue of Liberty, and heading to the Golden Gate Bridge! We obtain "miles" by reading books and testing well on them. 
Grab the map and move it around to see our markers. Click on each marker on the map to see who is driving, reading, testing, and where we are today! We are expected to begin on Feb. 1 and arrive in California on March the 1st.

Veteran's Day Interviews



Do you remember the days when we just read and talked about how to conduct an interview? My, how the classroom has changed!

Thanks to Colonel Connie Harden for allowing my language arts class to interview her yesterday. We conducted a video SKYPE session from our classroom in Indiana to Harrodsburg, Kentucky! Carlie did an outstanding job asking questions of Colonel Harden, and the entire class took notes on their iPads.

We will be writing reports and presenting a program for our interviewed Veterans on November 10th.
