Remembering September 11
September 11th is an important day for Americans, New York City residents, social studies students, and for people all over the world. Mr. Maxim and his students remembered September 11th today in a few ways. We watched a couple videos, such as this one from BrainPop, and this one from Nick News. Students were interested in learning more about September 11th, had a lot of questions, and cleared up many misconceptions. |

Some Fun Comics!
5th graders have been learning and having fun in Mr. Maxim's class by creating comics on the computer. They've learned about theme (the lesson or moral of a story). Students then created a comic which told a story and had a theme. Take a look at some of those comics. You can click on the images to see a bigger version of the comic. |
