Holiday Greetings From Across the Country
Rooms 2 and 6 are participating in a Holiday Card Exchange this year through Projects By Jen. The students have created holiday cards to be sent to 25 different school throughout the country. The card exchange gives the students a chance to learn about the climate and history of schools in other parts of the country. Using Google Earth, the students will actually be able to take a "tour" of the country as they connect with other students participating in the project. This project also opens up the opportunity to develop pen-pals and collaboration partners for other projects throughout the year. Keep your eye out for the displays of the card that we receive.

The planning for this year's “Survivor Miriam” Summer Program is underway. While the TV show encourages players to “Outwit, Outplay and Outlast”, our goal will be to “Enlighten, Encourage, and Empower.”
The Miriam School Summer Program offers the opportunity for students to maintain academic skills through instruction in reading, math and written language in the morning. During the afternoon, the students will participate in a variety of enrichment activities based on our theme and will explore the social skills necessary for successful teamwork.
