Pioneer Reflection



We had wonderful time sharing our Westward Expansion projects and work samples! I am curious. What was your favorite activity that we did during this unit? Was is the journal, the iBook with widgets, Aurasma, time line, map, brain tracking or viewing to learn with Little House on the Prairie? Please give a detailed explanation about what you liked or did not enjoy as much.

Living your Dream

Dan Yaccarino
Charlie Escher


 In the past two weeks, we met two inspirational men who shared the same message. Even though these men have extremely different careers, they both spent time when they were young thinking about what they love doing and what they were interested in. Mr. Escher and Mr. Yaccarino studied and worked hard to make their passion a career. Dan Yacarrino suggested we take time to close our eyes and think about the thing we most love to do, what makes us happiest. Please reflect on your interests. What do you love to do? What do you hope you can do every day in your work when you grow up?
Dan Yaccarino uses his passion of drawing every day as an illustrator, animator and art teacher!

Charlie Escher uses his passion for action, space and planes every day as a Navy pilot!
