A Christmas Surprise!

Today the fourth graders got a special surprise!  Mrs. Garrett Burke, the man behind the California state quarter design, stopped by our school and gave every student a "Quarterama" book as well as a National Park quarters collector folder!  We skyped with him in early November!

What an amazing surprise! 

He went to a Catholic School in suburban Philadelphia and said he was really impressed with the students during our skype session and choose our 4th graders to continue their learning about the topic!

Here he is with the students and their new books!

Thanks so much Mr. Burke!

Tweeting with Bishop Vann!

Today our class sent a tweet to Bishop Kevin Vann and asked him if he would be interested in Skyping with our class.

He wrote us back!  

We are hoping to connect with him sometime in 2014!

We even replied to him and told him that we would be happy to show him how to Skype and that he is welcome to come to visit room 15 anytime!

Follow Room 15 on Twitter @room15sbs!
