Utah and Canada…check your email!  A Monster is coming to a computer near you!

This week we are participating in the Monster Exchange!  We have partner classes in Victoria, Canada and Utah that we will be sharing our monsters with.  Students draw a picture, write a very good description, and then we will trade descriptions with the class through the online Monster Gallery at www.monsterexchange.org.  Check out this sample of a monster exchange that has already been completed!

In the end, we will see just how closely our partner class drawings match our original drawing!

I can’t display any of our fabuluous creations because our partner classes might be peaking!

On November 3 and 4, GATE students hosted mock elections in their buildings.  GATE 5 and 6 hosted a mock election November 3.  GATE 4 held a mock election at the Elementary on Tuesday, November 4.  You can check out a slideshow of the elementary mock election made by our Principal and official election reporter, Mrs. Kocurek on the elementary website.

Throughout the day, we graphed the data of the incoming votes! It was a close race in both buildings.
