-WOW- That’s Fantastic!

I wish I could go see Germany some day.
I hear that the “bergs” are exceptionally beautiful over there…

… but not quite as beautiful as the Bergs over here.

German translation: berg = mountain
English translation: Berg = Carolyn

It is so cool about your name translation! I learned something today!

Miss O’Neill teaches in Berlin. Did you remember that? Last week she went to her first German Basketball Game. The team is called the Alba Berlin. The Berlin team played RheinEnergie Köln from Cologne. Here are some things she observed at the game:

1. The ball has white stripes on it.
2. Lots of the players are guys from the United States.
3. The Germans really get behind their team and cheer alot.

Otherwise, it was pretty much the same as basketball here in the states!

What this blog is about…

Each year in Mrs. Ramras’ Second Grade, students choose a country to study. During this year’s project, students will be learning about many different countries. This blog, “Sharing Cultures, Sharing Knowledge” will showcase the process of this educational journey.

Students will be sharing and communicating what they have learned during this project through this blog. Each student will be posting with assistance during classtime four times throughout the project. (Students will be posting by first name only.) “Sharing Cultures, Sharing Knowledge” is a private blog with a nonpublished address. Please comment as much as you like to any or all of the postings you will read on this blog. The students will be excited to read your comments and share in your experiences. This will help our students better understand the various countries and heritages represented in this project. Please share this blog address with your family and friends so that they may, too, comment and share with our students.

Please know that comments will be posted for all to read. If you would like to email Mrs. Murdach, Technology Facilitator or Mrs. Ramras, Second Grade teacher, please see the Lyon School link to locate the email contacts.
