Welcome QuadBloggers!

A great big friendly Helloooo to Mrs. Minter's class, Mr. Mitchell's class and Mrs. Asri's class!  We hope that your school year is off to a great start!

Day 6 update

Hello bloggers!

Today was the 6th day of school here in the US, we are settling in nicely!  Students are coming in very excited to see if we have heard from our quadblogging buddies overseas.  So far, we have had a few conversations with Mrs. Minter's class from New Zealand, thanks Mrs. Minter!  We love hearing your students comments on the blog. 

We've noticed a few hits from Great Britian, we think that Mr. Mitchell and Mrs. Asri's classes are finding their way to our blog- Hooray!

This week in Social Studies the class has been brushing up on their map skills.  In a week or 2, we are going to do a Mystery Skype with Miss Crowther's class to try to find their location when they give us clues, and they will need to locate us!  Sounds like Fun!  Talk to you soon, Mrs. DiBattista's class
