Geography Bee
(January 9, 2008)
This year's Geography Bee was a good one! And yes, girls were a part of it also. The participants this year studied hard but the questions were still quite tough and Mr. Jackman wasn't giving anyone extra hints or clues. The studying paid off for the top three winners!
Geoff (2nd), Liam (1st), Seth (3rd)
Congratulations Boys!
This year's patriotic program was one of the best! Students sang about America, reaching your dreams, having hope and working hard to reach that better life. We enjoyed this great opportunity to celebrate with music! Thanks to all who helped make the program a success!
Many of the songs that were sung during the program came from Classroom Classics. Check out their web site to see what's available or purchase great music.
