World Math Day!

Poetry Video Conference

Hi my name is Amelia!

Today, our class is going to have a video conference with a class in New Jersey. We have been working very hard on poetry. Today we will present our poetry that we memorized from books, and ask a question. For example the question could be: What kinds of figurative language did you hear? Katie, Connor, Sawyer, and I will do a Introduction. We will show them snow, and talk about our school and much more.
