What could Albert Einstein and Mia Hamm have in common? Both were among the heroes chosen by Mrs. Weigand's class for their Hyperstudio presentations. After working on their projects during the second marking period, the students of Room 14 shared their hero presentations with their parents at a Polar Bear Picnic on January 29, 2001. Students shared multi-media presentations with their parents which included personal definitions of a hero, biographical information about him or her, and how they hope to emulate certain qualities of this important figure in their own lives. A lunch of hero sandwiches (of course!) and ice cream treats followed in the L.G.I. What better way to take a brrrrreak from the winter doldrums than to share heart-warming stories of role models and a picnic in January? Mrs. Weigand's class sends warm thanks to all who participated in this event!
