Connecting With Our Community


We've been learning about goods and services in Social Studies.  To make the concepts become more of a reality, we went on an adventure!  We visited various places in our Randolph, NY community.  At each stop students took turns interviewing and taking photos.  We created this VoiceThread to share our photos and information that we learned.  We reinacted the question and answer interview format.  This project also served two other purposes.  You may wonder why the students are seen wearing pink sunglasses in winter?  We received the Collaboreyes shades as part of a global project where students photograph and write about places that are meaningful to them.  You can find more about the project by visiting the Collaboreyes blog.  We also participated in the Community Connections wiki that shares about rural, urban, and suburban communities.  Please leave us a comment on the last page of the VoiceThread!  To view the VoiceThread larger click here.
