African Travels

Today, we began to present our Travel Journal assignments in class. The work was impressive, and each of us learned more about the various countries chosen. There were colorful flags, delicious recipe ideas, and fictional, but interesting tales of what we saw and did in the country. In the slideshow above, we are sharing our favorite pages from our project. Enjoy!

Our Olweus bullying discussion centered on rule #4 today. Rule 4 is- If we know that somebody is being bullied, we will tell an adult at school and an adult at home. Many students participated in the discussion with their great ideas about why students are reluctant to report, and what we could do at school to make it more likely that students will report. Telling an adult is not "tattling," but keeping someone safe. We all want our school to be bully-free.
