My Faverite part of the video was when Megan pointed at the penny.
ReplyDeleteDear Ramsay,
DeleteI loved that part too, it was so much fun making our green screen show. I think we should do it again, I am especially proud of you for giving your speech twice in front of our audience. You should feel so proud of yourself too...well done Mr. Edison!
Love,
Mrs. Madden
I learned that Ruby Bridges was the first African American in a white school. The funnest part was decorating our famous people dolls! The hardest part was researching my famous person, Dr Seuss. Cole
ReplyDeleteDear Cole,
DeleteI loved your Dr. Seuss costume, you looked just like him! :) You uncovered so many great details about his life and memorized your speech beautifully. It sounds as though you learned important facts about Ruby Bridges too. Great listening!
Love,
Mrs. Madden
Dear Mrs. Madden,
ReplyDeleteOne of the most interesting facts is that Amelia Earhart was only six when the Wright brothers flew their first airplane. I also learned that George C. Marshall dropped four atomic bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima. My third interesting fact was Bill Gates hid Leonado's notebokks in his library behind the wall.
Love, Margo

Hi Alex,
Delete...or should I say Bill Gates? You were very convincing today and I am so proud of how hard you worked to find the details from your reading, your biography report is so informative.

Dear Kole,
DeleteThank you for setting up your response perfectly, I will always remember how you started your speech with an onomatopoeia...."Brrrr, it's cold here in Antarctica!" I know you researched Ernest Shackelton beautifully, and I'm so proud of all you've learned from your classmates as well.
Great job my friend!
Mrs. Madden :)
Dear Mrs. Madden, My most most favorite fact is that Thomas Alva Edison Created more than 1,000 Creations. It is my favorite because 1,000 is ALOT.I also liked it because imagine how much TIME that would be.

Dear Connor,
ReplyDeleteNow I understand how Thomas Edison used his sense of curiosity... imagine what anyone can accomplish if they use their imagination? I agree, that's so amazing. Thanks for sharing today, your Ben Franklin presentation was wonderful and I could tell you enjoyed yourself too.Great job!
Mrs. Madden
Dear Mrs. Madden
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the celebration was when did the green screen and today I felt like I was Ted because I know all about him and I was dressed up like him. from Ted Williams
Dear Mrs.Madden,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed learning about Leonardo da Vinci's famous Mona Lisa and how much progress and perseverance he had to make his scientific inventions. I also learned about Betsy Ross and how she liked to sew and made the American flag. It was a fun day and I liked having my grandmother, Gugi, and my parents visit our Famous Person celebration and learn about many famous people, some who still live today and some from history.

Hi Mrs. Madden-
ReplyDeleteI'm writing to let you and your students know how much I enjoyed their Famous People performances! I am still in awe at what they are capable of achieving! Your students goal setting skills were so evident and certainly paid off after what they showed us yesterday! Though I was completely impressed, I was not at all surprised by the hard work they put forward! When I come to Steward school everyday, I come to teach and share with the students things I know to help them with their education and yesterday, they reversed the role and I walked away knowing far more than I did when I entered the builidng, thanks to each and everyone of your students! Every audience member in your classroom during the show was so engaged (you could hear a pin drop as we didn't want to miss a thing!), so captivated with their knowledge of their characters and their confidence was so evident with every word they spoke!
I am so grateful I was able to attend and I thoroughly enjoyed every single moment!
BRAVO Boys and Girls!!
Encore, Encore!!
Mrs. Wronski
