After a short month made even shorter by snow days and snow delays, February came to a close with two exciting things for Room 206. Last Tuesday we all made it to school early to board the bus for a field trip to the Ridgefield Playhouse. We watched a play about five immigrants and their experiences at Ellis Island. One immigrant had gotten sick on the ship and unfortunately was not let into America. It helped paint a very clear picture of what life was like as an immigrant, and gave us some ideas of what to expect when we visit Ellis Island NEXT MONTH!
Exciting thing number two happened on Friday when we were FINALLY able to break out our brand new Nexus 7 Tablets. We did a tablet scavenger hunt to familiarize ourselves with the devices. The scavenger hunt included downloading math apps, bookmarking important sites, and of course changing our wallpaper.
Let’s hope that March brings even more excitement and (crossing our fingers) less snow!
