Milam Elementary has joined with the Mayflower School in Santiago, Chile, to participate in an International Publisher's Exchange. Students from both schools will design and write books for the students in their partner school. Students will use StoryBook Weaver software to publish their books. Then, students will bind the books using binding kits. In addition to sharing books, third grade students from each school will become e-pals and exchange e-mails with each other, sharing information about their schools, customs, and countries. Milam Elementary students and teachers are extremely excited about this project. Look for more information about the project, and student books on our web site in the near future. |

First grade students at LBJ, will be completing a graphic organizer about President Barack Obama. Then, they will formulate a question that they would like to ask him. Students will be video taped asking their questions. The video will be inserted into a Power Point Presentation, and will be shared with parents and the LBJ community. Students in Ms. Williams' second grade class, at Milam, will be using a Wiki to correspond with students from our partner school in Santiago, Chile. Visit the site to read the student's responses to a prompt. In the future, the students will be creating and posting questions. |
