Hello Stavroula!! I will have my students sign in under myself. They will respond to each post that is written. I will make sure that they use their names when introducing themselves. Do you have a topic that we could start off with? Let me know. As this progresses, we can alter and tweek any problems. Take care.
Stavroula, It has been a while. The kids are ready to begin chatting. They are super-pumped and can't wait. I will have my students begin writing about themselves. I will have them pick one of your students each and address them as a "pal. Take care, Ben
Stavroula, Hello!! We are all set and will begin sending short blogs to you today. They may have a few glitches but we will soon sort things out. Each child will be logged in under my name, but they will sign their blog at the end with their first and last name. Today they will be introducing themselves and explaining who they are. Some students are Mohawk and they may talk about their culture as well. Some may even tell your students their Mohawk names. Let's see how it goes. Sincerely, Ben Barkley
Sorry about not having all of them send letters yet. I will have the rest of the boys matched up real soon. I assigned each student a certain name and that is who they will address. Have your students find their blog name. Ben

Danai, Sorry for my lack of blogs to you. First ill teach you about Mohawk. My Mohawk name is Karonhienhawi (Ga Loon Ya Howi). Yeah Danai i would like that. Sa:kon Karonhienhawi ionkats (Say Goon Ka Loon Ya Howi You Guts). I just told hello my name is...

Hello Macy and Sarah, I would like to give you some information about my name.In Greek mythology, Danae was a daughter of King Acrisius of Argos and his wife Queen Eurydice. She was the mother of the hero Perseus by Zeus. Disappointed by his lack of male heirs, Acrisius asked an oracle if this would change. The oracle told him that he would be killed by his daughter's son. She was childless and, meaning to keep her so, he shut her up in a bronze tower or cave. But Zeus came to her in the form of golden rain, and impregnated her. Soon after, their child Perseus was born. So I was named after her.
Danai, That's really cool and interesting, I love to learn about Greek mythology. The stem team had a Greek festival , we learned about Zeus, Argos, and Perseus. We even did a play about Persephone and Demeter. I was Persephone! Also my name means Princess!
Danai, Hi Danai our school is just coming back from Easter break. Do you celebrate Easter? Macy means: Harmony and beauty. I also played in the Greek play, I played Aphrodite! I hope to learn more about your fascinating origin stories.

In STEM we learn lots of stuff like how to work together and to choose a good career path. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and math. I've always wonder if they have hockey over in Greece. Sincerely, Timmy Cook
Hi Timmy My full name is Thanassis Goergiou, I'm 14, I'm in the second grade of jounior High school. I like sports to. Mostly basketball and cycling I have a younger sister. Here in Hellas we don't use to play hockey,anyway we heve some small teams and some small hockey events. I would like to learn more about baseball Please forgive my mistakes!
Hi Thanassis, Sorry I haven't gotten back to you in so long. We are having an agbotics competition. It is so fun. We had to apply for jobs and then get picked. It is so fun. I am in the newsroom and I have to get stories from corporations on their robots. Baseball is very fun. My team has just recently won a championship. If you are very good at baseball you may make it to the MLB which is the professional league for baseball. Your Friend, Timmy

ReplyDeleteHello Stavroula!! I will have my students sign in under myself. They will respond to each post that is written. I will make sure that they use their names when introducing themselves. Do you have a topic that we could start off with? Let me know. As this progresses, we can alter and tweek any problems. Take care.
DeleteStavroula,
DeleteIt has been a while. The kids are ready to begin chatting. They are super-pumped and can't wait. I will have my students begin writing about themselves. I will have them pick one of your students each and address them as a "pal.
Take care,
Ben
Stavroula,
ReplyDeleteHello!! We are all set and will begin sending short blogs to you today. They may have a few glitches but we will soon sort things out. Each child will be logged in under my name, but they will sign their blog at the end with their first and last name. Today they will be introducing themselves and explaining who they are. Some students are Mohawk and they may talk about their culture as well. Some may even tell your students their Mohawk names. Let's see how it goes.
Sincerely,
Ben Barkley
Sorry about not having all of them send letters yet. I will have the rest of the boys matched up real soon. I assigned each student a certain name and that is who they will address. Have your students find their blog name.
DeleteBen

Danai,
DeleteHello again its Macy, Sarah is in my homeroom class and will be joining us until she finds her own buddy, Is that alright with you?
Hello Macy and Sarah,
DeleteI would like to give you some information about my name.In Greek mythology, Danae was a daughter of King Acrisius of Argos and his wife Queen Eurydice. She was the mother of the hero Perseus by Zeus. Disappointed by his lack of male heirs, Acrisius asked an oracle if this would change. The oracle told him that he would be killed by his daughter's son. She was childless and, meaning to keep her so, he shut her up in a bronze tower or cave. But Zeus came to her in the form of golden rain, and impregnated her. Soon after, their child Perseus was born. So I was named after her.
Danai,
DeleteThat's really cool and interesting, I love to learn about Greek mythology. The stem team had a Greek festival , we learned about Zeus, Argos, and Perseus. We even did a play about Persephone and Demeter. I was Persephone! Also my name means Princess!
Sincerely,
Sarah Tremblay
Danai,
DeleteHi Danai our school is just coming back from Easter break. Do you celebrate Easter? Macy means: Harmony and beauty. I also played in the Greek play, I played Aphrodite! I hope to learn more about your fascinating origin stories.

ReplyDeleteMy name is Timmy and I'm in STEM at Salmon River Central School.I'm in 6th grade and I'm 11 years old.I like to play soccer and baseball but I usually mostly enjoy playing hockey. I've always wanted to know if people over where you live play hockey.In my acedimc life STEM stands for science,technology,engineering,and math.I know it kind of sounds boring but actually STEM makes school come to life.The program helps you relize what careers to choose and how to work together.

ReplyDeleteMy name is Cobie and Im 12 years old. I play hockey and lacrosse. I wonder if you play any sports? I'm in STEM which stands for science, technology, engineering, and math. In STEM we have a thing called Monday Morning Meeting where we have a meeting with every one in STEM and have 4 to 5 people in the Morning Buzz. That's where they give everyone a presentation on the weather report, big things going on in the world, big things going around in the local area.

Hi Thanassis,
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't gotten back to you in so long. We are having an agbotics competition. It is so fun. We had to apply for jobs and then get picked. It is so fun. I am in the newsroom and I have to get stories from corporations on their robots. Baseball is very fun. My team has just recently won a championship. If you are very good at baseball you may make it to the MLB which is the professional league for baseball.
