Welcome to The World Around Us

This blog is being used to connect our classroom in Hinesburg, Vermont USA with classrooms from around the world.  We will be learning from each other by looking into each others lives to build connections.  One of the first ways we are connecting is by looking at our hopes/dreams and our fears.  By comparing and contrasting our hopes and fears, we will begin to build these connections.  Each classroom that we meet will be sharing their hopes and fears with us.  The responses will be put into Wordle.  This online resource takes the words or phrases and displays them by placing the words that appear more often in larger/bolder print.
Here is a Wordle on the hopes and dreams of 6th graders from Hinesburg, Vermont. Click Here
As we receive more information from school from around the world, you will be able access their information to draw connections.
