The sixth grader's at Boston Workmen's Circle Shule Sunday School are doing a photo/blog exchange with Bedouin students. We expect that by seeing photos of the everyday life of young people in the Middle East, our students will get a better understanding of what life looks for children of different backgrounds. This is part of our curriculum on the history and current life in Israel and Palestine.

Esther
Hi again, I go to Devotion School in Brookline, Massachusetts. In school right now in social studies we are learning about the middle ages. It is very interesting to learn about because I get to know about how hard life can be. In science I am learning about wetlands. This is my favorite subject because I think it’s interesting how wetlands are made and what animals and plants live there. In math I am learning about quadrants, which is fun because you get to plot points on a grid. In language arts I am learning about writing responses because on Wednesday and Friday the big test is coming up! The test consists of multiple choice and open response questions and every kid hates them. This dreaded test is called the MCAS. There are MCAS tests in science and math also. Lucky you don’t have to take them!
