Showing off my students yet AGAIN

Go here, look at the video screen at the right side of the site. Click on the "Students react to inauguration" mini-screen. See my little darlings.

Tomorrow, you can tell your students that the video has been watched by people from all over the United States.

How come they all had Oklahoma accents?
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

Nancy,

I cried a little.

Your relationship with your students came through. I loved how you did a 'voice over' while you all were watching the inauguration. I loved seeing the ease with which you stood in the front of the room, while a student was being interviewed in the back. You truly are related to your students. Having them listen to the speech and write down what they thought most important - brilliant! If it is okay - I would love to hear what your students said to that.

Thanks, Nancy. Keep up the good work.

I tried to watch this earlier and saw a totally unrelated news video. Since others were able to watch the intended clip, I tried again just now and found that you have to use the arrows on the viewer to find the clip you're looking for. If you put your cursor on the thumbnail images, you'll see a caption for each one. The clip you want is captioned "Students react to inauguration." Click on that and you'll get a 15 second commercial, followed by the Carver School 8th grade students and their teacher. I hope that helps anyone else who might have had trouble finding the clip. It appears that the clips stay posted for just a few days, so catch it while you can.
