Teachers'room

Nataliya_Byzova May 4, 2012
Hi Lesa,
It's sad that the time of the semester is coming to the end.
Your students' activity on WikiTV gave us so much joy. Sharing WikiTV was both educational and cognitive for my students.
Besides, the project turned out into real communication, that is what I was dreaming about.
Today some of my students volonteered to answer one of your girls' questions.
Here is a link

http://wikitv313.wikispaces.com/Weekend+TV+2012

I want to thank you and the students from Notre Dame de Sion school for your input into this project. I know that if students perform so well, it means that their teacher does her job sincerely and with love. Your students are very creative, intelligent and friendly.
The videos you posted on the US Channel were professionally made by your students. The idea to find interesting facts about Kyiv and Kansas was superb.
I was impressed by the surveys your students made in order to unswer my students' questions.
It was very kind of them to support my students' efforts to master English, no matter how many mistakes they made.
I like the photos you posted. When I look at them I have a feeling that I see 2 astronaut crews ready to fly into space. )))
I think that this project was a step towards each other, to better understanding of our cultures and lifestyles.
My students and I would be glad to continue collaboration with your school next year.
Nataliya


mizchilders May 7, 2012
Hello Nataliya!

I agree that our collaboration has been a huge success. My students have benefited very much from having a larger audience for their video work. They are so honored that you use the term "professional" to describe the work they have produced. We have sincerely enjoyed the authentic quality of your videos; it's clear that your students have brought tremendous personal dedication to the project.

I believe the dialogue we've had has opened the students' eyes to day-to-day life in another country in a way that moves well beyond what can be achieved through traditional classroom instruction.

I am especially appreciative of the kindness and courtesy shown by your students. Their attitudes and demeanor give the impression of a nation that is extremely civilized, with high values placed on education, integrity, and respectful treatment of others. These are values that we strive toward daily at Notre Dame de Sion high school and we are so pleased to find this present at your school as well.

I can see that your students find great joy in having you as their English teacher. They are so lucky to continue with you for a number of years, and the result is obvious -- their proficiency in a second language is something my students have commented on over and over as something they find very impressive.

Sincerely,
Lesa

Internet and technology

Yehor_Plotnitsky Apr 6, 2012
How do you use your computers in the school?
Do you use Internet in the school for fun?


msanders_sion Apr 10, 2012
At Notre Dame de Sion, we can bring our own technology like iPads and laptops to class and use them to write papers or work on class assignments. Some teachers allow us to bring our cell phones to class to look up vocabulary words, homework assignments and check our grades on online.
Some people can use the internet for fun during our study hall period by playing games on their iPads, watching YouTube videos or just checking out random information on Wikipedia or Google.


krystenh_nds Apr 11, 2012
Here at Notre Dame De Sion, we use the internet to type assignments given to us by out teachers and the teachers also allow us to use them when we are searching for something class related. I personally enjoy playing games and reading books on my nook color. A nook color is basically an Ipad made for mainly reading books but you can also get on the internet just like a computer.

Do you like sing the internet, If so what for?


ssummers123 Apr 11, 2012
Yes at Notre Dame de Sion we use technology a lot. We are evolving as a technology based school. We can bring out labtops, ipads and phones to school to work on assignments when we are allowed too.

mizchilders Apr 10, 2012
I had a lovely meal with my family, and we hid Easter eggs on the lawn for my daughter to hunt. We often decorate real eggs as a part of Easter, but this year we used colorful eggs made of plastic.

Every year on Easter there is an event at the White House called the Easter Egg Roll -- here's a picture:
