All About American Money

The students  living in America have been collecting pledge money for the Ugandan Global Project.



They are proud to announce that:


Mrs. Yollis' class collected          $1142
Mrs. Ranney's class collected       $800
Mr. Salsich class collected            $970

We are very proud that we were able to help our Ugandan friends!


Below is a VoiceThread created by the American students. 

In it, you will learn a little about the value of each coin and bill, and what can be seen on the currency.




What did you learn from the VoiceThread?

Do you have any questions about the American currency?

How is the money like your money? How is it different?

California Walks for Uganda

On Friday, October 22nd Mrs. Yollis' and Mrs. Ranney's classes walked their hilly community to raise awareness and money for their new Ugandan friends.
It was a lovely autumn day. Although the weather forecast predicted rain, it was a magnificent 68˚ F (18˚ C)! Thanks to the parents who help with the community walk!






What was your favorite part of the walk?

Do you have any questions for the classes?

A Day in the Life of a California Student

One terrific part of this project is learning about all of the different classes involved. It is great to compare what things are like in Australia, America, China and of course, Uganda! 

Here is a slide show about a day in the life of a student in California, America.

How is our day like your day?

Do you notice any differences?

If you have a question, please ask! We'd love to answer using a quality comment!
