Hi boys and girls. I miss being in school with all of you. I’m still singing our math and science songs. They are stuck in my head! I hope they are in yours too. I have a bunch of different fun activities for you all to work on. None of this is mandatory, however it’s going to be fun for you to play. For some of them you can create your own characters, earn and spend coins, earn badges, play multiplayer games, and watch animated movies. I’m having a blast playing them! It is important to keep working your brain and staying motivated. Below is a suggested schedule per day:
I know it-1 learning path (15 questions)
eSpark or Dream Box Learning: 1 learning path or about 20 minutes
Brainpop: Watch one video and try out an interactive quiz
Arcademics or Cool Math: Try out some fun lessons and games!

SOCIAL STUDIES:

Our 2019-20 Students
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We will be discussing what "service" means.
From the Volunteer Firefighters who visited our school (and their countless hours of training, fire calls in the middle of the night, to talking to school kids) to the Parents who volunteer in our schools to make sure we get field trips, to the many other leaders such as our coaches, our Scout leaders, to people who work on making our town a better place. All these people want to serve a purpose and help others.
This idea goes further - To the men and women who served our country in times of need: from the Revolutionary War, to WWI and WWII, Korea, 9/11, and the War On Terror. People have done their duty to their country for the benefit of many.
Take a look at some of the people in the Lehighton area who have served by skimming over these links. You will find many stories of selfless determination:
Pete Semanoff thought of others when he was a 5th grader at Lehighton - It led to a friendship with a war hero no one every knew before:
My Uncle Ezzie Kreiss - Lost at Sea Days Before D-Day:
Walter Haydt, Lost at Sea near Austrailia - First Lehighton person lost during WWII:
Perhaps the best example of self-lessness was my dear friend Ira Smith - Even though he lost everything, he was always positive:
My Dad’s Korean War Story “Keep the Faith”-
We Are Blessed – Tribute to Lehighton Grad Mike Wargo who fought in Afghanistan and lost his “war at home.” A monument with his silhouette is down on the by-pass:
The Lehighton American Legion Turned 100 years old in September of this year:
Think, Love, Remember:
We are looking at these stories to explore as many examples of service as we can find to understand the importance of what serivce means.
