Flashmobs and taking action

Today when talking to teacher Denise, she mentioned flashmobs, which people participate in to help spread awareness about taking care of our planet.  Take a look at this video, and watch these people taking action.  The video's captions are in French, but the message is loud and clear.

What do you think about this way of helping the planet?
Is there something we could do here in Taiwan to promote our environment?

Off to Tainan!

Tomorrow is going to be awesome, we are all very excited about the trip to Tainan.

It is not just a trip that has us excited.  We are going to begin our Cultural Identity unit with a big look at our OWN cultural identity.

Our first stop is the National History Museum in Tainan where we will learn about the story of Taiwan.
Our next destination is Anping Old fort, for a look at a real piece of Taiwan's history.

So what I want to know is: What do you already know about Taiwan's culture and history?  What do you expect to learn about this unit?  What will we see tomorrow? What is a "culture"?

Answer my questions in your comment, or comment on other people's answers.  Just be sure to include your name with your comment!

Today we perform!

Well today is the big day!  We are presenting our mime, puppet show, talk show and role play skits for the PYP.  Your plays are creative, funny and your very own creation.  All the plays also teach a great lesson.

I know that you have all made fantastic progress and look forward to the big presentation.  Good luck!  What I want to know is what you are thinking now?  Are you ready?  How are you feeling?
