#WeekinReview
Today for we worked with Mr. Cusimano's class on the issue of #WeekinTheReview.

IAIC elementary and middle school have come together to create a school newspaper.  Our newspaper titled “#WeekinReview” will debut January 30th 2014. The newspaper will consist of two pages highlighting current events locally and from around the world. The students will work together to create, edit and publish a specific section of the newspaper. The sections will include topics such as science, sports, politics and technology. There will be a special section each week featuring an interview with a Gersh Academy staff member. The newspaper was created to increase social skills through group work. The collaboration between Mr. Cusimano and Mr. Giangaspro’s classes will help these students grow socially. #WeekinReview will also help spread awareness of important topics to friends and family. It will model appropriate conversation topics and cultural discussions. By maintaining a consistent understanding of news and how to interpret its importance, this newspaper is fostering teamwork and friendship among peers.


Basket Money:
We are putting together a Dessert themed basket to auction off at the Winter Show. If you could send your child in with 10 dollars or bring some dessert accessories in, that would be appreciated. We would need it by the end of this week!
