Are you preventing human misery this week?
In Mrs. Christian's Media and Communications class, there have been a variety of projects being done. One of those has been preparing for book talks or book readings. Noah Hecox, Tarin Preston, and Shay Pixley picked out video equipment that Mrs. Cristee ordered using funds from a SOAR Grant.
The video equipment arrived, the video crew got it set up, and today, they videoed our first book reading. Adison Gould reads the book "Bonaparte Falls Apart." After the video was done, Tanika Sixkiller did some editing.
The students are taking on leadershop roles in the class in designing and developing different projects.
Job Well Done Today!
We hope you enjoy this Halloween story!
