In the Snow


This project had many challenges for us. First we had weather challenges - a blizzard and many snowy days which meant school closures. Many children were sick and absent from school. We also had a school vacation. We had technology challenges, as well. My original plan to have the children create Chinese characters in Kidpix failed and our projector in the Computer Lab blew a fuse.

It would have been easy to give up, but we perservered and learned something new about Appleworks along the way. We hope you like our final product - it surely is a work of heart!

Here is a small sample of our work.  Please visit our class project web site for more information.
