JamestownWiki

We have begun work on our Jamestown wikispot. Click on the title of this post for a direct link to the wiki. Use this post space to make suggestions, ask for help, ask questions about what needs to be done.  You can also e-mail me with your username (Sailorgirl, ICU) and let me know who you really are!  I will not post your personal mail, of course.

Students, please note that the wiki is not a blog. It is meant to be a resource, a source of information about Jamestown, not a bulletin board for opinions - that happens later in the comments section.    Please talk to me about what you would like to work on and I will help you with the information you need to find and what template you need to use.

U.S. Presidential Elections... and You

This post "I think a cool new post could be about the presidential election and what we think about it" really provides food for thought. What do you think about the way we elect our presidents? How they campaign, how they debate, what the issues are, what they promise us...students from abroad, how do you view our election process? Who would you want to see win the U.S. Presidential Election? 6mixers, what do you think? You will be voting very soon...

Got Favorites?

What's your favorite food, books, movies, movie stars, tv stars, music, musician, websites, sports...you get the idea. This open forum was an original idea from one of you. Let's share...

How do you spend your winter holiday?

We have recieved in the Happy Holidays post comments section, a request for a new blog post called "How do you spend your winter holiday"? Please feel free to reply to this post either before or after vacation. Happy break! :^D

From Lebanon to Saskatchewan to Jamestown!

Because blogging is a worldwide practice, inspiration travels around the world at the speed of light! A writing prompt from Lebanese students from the American Community School in Beirut inspired a Canadian teacher (Saskatchewan is a province of Canada) to use it for her students, and now I present it to you! It is called an "I am from" poem. I will be interested to see how our "I am from" poems will be the same, or different from, Lebanese and Canadian students. Click on the links to visit the other sites so you can get some good examples. You can see that the both the Hainault and ACS follow the rules of personal safety, so please remember to post your poems, with your first name and last initial only.

If you navigate around the other schools, you might be interested to see if their lunches and school holidays are different from ours! You may also reply to the other school blogs - they like to track international visitors. Mrs. C.
