Goodbye to Greece, Hello to Germany!

Our E.L.A. classes did a wonderful job studying Greece. We learned so much about the country of Greece through our "video vacations" with Samantha Brown, the Adventures in Ancient Greece book study, and our group research projects (displayed outside of Ms.Launey's and Mrs.Lopez's classrooms). We even met a Greek girl named Amarandi, who taught us many things about her country through her website. We were super excited when she came and visited us on our blog! We will remember everything we experienced as we pack our bags and begin our journey through Germany. 

Our first German activity is a web field trip over to the Germany for Kids site. There you will meet a cool cartoon character named Philipp. His site has lots of information about cities, the Berlin Wall, food, music, school, and lots of other fun stuff about Germany. 

Your bonus assignment this week is to travel to the site and learn all you can about Germany. Then come back here and comment about what you learned. (Give at least 2 facts that you learned to earn a Behavior Buck.) Have a great trip!
