The fifth graders not only enjoyed Danni's visit, but we also learned
many new things.
- We practiced our geography skills and located Brazil on maps, which
led to discussions about time differences between Brazil and America.
- We sponsored a "Danni Sharing" with Mrs. Mason's 1st graders by
presenting the items in Danni's box in small groups and leading
discussions about the contents.
- We used venn diagrams in reading to compare/contrast the brazilian
agenda to our school agenda, and to compare/contrast brazilian money to
our money.
- We e-mailed students in Brazil about the Danni project, and about
what we enjoyed/learned from the experience.
- We helped the Kindergarten students write their messages and e-mail
them in the lab.
