Class 4-419 participated in a project by thinking about the many businesses in our local neighborhood and how they can get to know the people that work there!
How we used Thinking Maps to prepare for our interviews.?
We started the project off by using thinking Maps to brainstorm the various businesses in our Community that we would like to know more about or we love shopping at with our families.
Student led Interviews from three local businesses (Deli-Monte Pizza-FireStation)
Our Class used Bookcreator.com to think of what questions we can ask the business owners.

The interview team walks in the rain, sleet or snowstorms if necessary to get their story!!! The students returned signed permission slips by their parents in order to leave the building. We do things by the book!
Our local Firefighters were so gracious to our interview team. The all were excited and welcomed out team. This left a lasting impression on our students.
