Mr. Coffey says, "My 7th Grade Geography students were learning about Australia in a rather unique way. They formulated questions they had about Australia, and using the class Chromebooks, filmed themselves asking their questions. We then took their videos and sent them to friends who are lifelong residents of Australia, who in turn filmed themselves answering each student's question to be shown to the class. Students were excited just to be able to speak to an Australian, and to get a personal response made it just that much more impactful!"
Mrs. Buehlmann says, "We have more students able to tie their shoes!"

Great job tonight by the Licking Chapter of the FFA! Wonderful meal and ceremony.
Ms. Hood says, "All year my class has been writing pen pals in Vermont. Today we met them virtually via Zoom and introduced ourselves to our new friends. We surprised them at the end of our visit by singing, “You’ve Got a Friend in Me”. Mrs. Williamson has been helping us practice the last couple of weeks for our surprise. We ended our week with a pajama party! 🎉"
