Alexandria+Country+Day

==== Hi, my name is Kristy Zachary and I currently teach at Alexandria Country Day School. I have been a teacher for 11 years and have taught American History(5th) and Louisiana History(7th) for 5 years at ACDS. I love teaching history but have taught all subjects in my years as a teacher. I am excited about starting this project with my fifth graders because it will give them the chance to view other customs around their community and state. Currently, we are working on a study of Native Americans and learning about their culture, so this will provide a great transition into the study of our own community's culture. My students are anxious to explore the new gadgets like the Flip camera and cannot wait to publish their own movies. I know that this will be a wonderful learning experience for all of us. ====
