We joined our Canadian neighbors to celebrate ‘Music Monday’ as we viewed the linkup with the I.S.S. What an amazing concert!
Over the past year we have seen so many examples of extraordinary community helpers. This week there were difficult days in metropolitan Boston. Many of our community helpers have been here to support us during these difficult times. In tribute to all community helpers, I invite you to add your town and an icon representing one of the community helpers or several who you would like to honor.

Today is an ordinary day in Watertown. We are grateful for all who worked so hard to make it that way!
My thoughts and prayers go out to the victim’s families and friends of the Boston marathon bombings. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2013/04/18/us/boston-bombing-victims.html?_r=0 and to Sean Collier, the slain MIT officer http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/04/19/officer-shot-and-killed-on-m-i-t-campus/ , and to all of the injured.
It’s an ordinary day in Watertown, MA, but our memories of the past week, will never be forgotten.
Dean Shareski connects young pre-service teachers in his ECMP class with teachers and classrooms around the world. In this lip dub activity Dean invited everyone involved in his program to participate in a lip dub of Is Somebody Singing by Chris Hatfield. Dean’s final piece is a is an excellent example of the power of unifying hundreds of educators and students together.
Is Somebody Singing is the song for Music Monday for Canada. Further information about Music Monday see http://musicmakesus.ca/musicmonday/
Note: Our school’s contribution to the lip dub was created by using the Sock Puppets app.
