ReplyDeleteThank you for your wonderful comment! It was a very exciting day today at the Awards show!
Yes, we were pretty nervous getting up on stage. We all took a deep breath and did our best. Even though we'd practiced, some of us made a few little errors...me included...but that happens! :-) It was an excellent experience and fun for us to be together. :-)

Dear Mrs. Yollis,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you and your students on winning the awards. I had conflict so that I was not able to go and watch the ceremony. But Paul and my wife told me all about it when they came home last Saturday. Then I watched the video on the post. It was excting and enjoyable to watch the video and listen to the speeches. Keep bloggng. The kids can learn so much from it.

Dear Mrs. Yollis,
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that we won the Digital Voice Awards!
My favorite part about the Digital Voice Awards was gettting my award and reading my speeches.
Also, it was funny how you were the first one to go up and accept your award.
Were you nervous when you went up to accept your award?
Sincerely,
Nick
P.S. I am leaving this comment from my dad's office where he works.
Dear Mrs. Yollis and class,
ReplyDeleteI want to congratulate you all on your three awards and on the awesome job you did accepting them. You must all be proud of yourselves for what you contributed to your class blog. I have enjoyed reading and watching what you have been doing in class. The map of North America left me speechless. Keep up the good work.

Dear Mrs. Yollis,
ReplyDeleteI was so excited at the Award show that I almost forgot my line. I can't believe our three posts won.
Did the stage look the same last year? Does the Digital Voice Award and the IT outrage make the order from the first to last by subject?
From,
Paul
Dear Speakers,
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of all of you! It is a very hard thing to stand up in front of a room full of strangers and give a speech. You all did an amazing job on your individual parts.
And Nick - for you to stand up and give your own speech - just amazing!
Congratulations,
Barbara

Keep up the great work from your blogging friend down under AA.
Dear Mrs. Yollis,
ReplyDeleteI think that is was really funny when Ethan started laughing. I cracked up when he laughed! I was laughing so hard that I thought I couldn't give my speech.
Best wishes,
Kayla
Mrs Yollis what a series of wonderful videos! What wonderful, and fully deserved recognition for your students! Amazing!
