Pink or Blue...How about you?

Beyond Pink and Blue: Fourth Graders get fired up about Pottery Barn’s gender stereotypes Robin Cooley Students were appalled by the Pottery Barn Kids catalog that they were receiving in their homes. After learning about stereotypes in their fourth-grade classroom, these students noticed that the Pottery Barn catalog was biased towards gender stereotypes of pink and blue. All girl items were pink and all boy items were blue. The question then was how do you change the stereotypes put forth by popular brands and stores? “Newton Public Schools is actively working to create an anti-bias/anti-racist school environment.

I believe in Disney

I am a certified Disney enthusiast. I have always have been and believe that I always will be. In fact, coming up on my 30 th birthday, I have asked for a DisneyParks Dooney and Burke wristlet. Being so in love with Disney, I am connected to animated children’s culture in and out of my kindergarten classroom.

23 languages...so little time

Duolingo Duolingo is a program in which any person anywhere can learn a new language of their choosing at their own pace. With 23 languages offered, Duolingo creates language specific programs beginning with basic vocabulary words and building upon that information through each lesson. Each lesson contains speaking, listening, multiple choice, and translation pieces. Individuals can find out their exact answers and scores immediately. Duolingo keeps track of how many questions are answered correctly and incorrectly, and the individuals receives rewards as they learn. It can be used individually or set up for a classroom experience. The perks of Duolingo is that it is a website, and an available app on both Apple and Android products. Most importantly, it is free! This upcoming school year, I plan to attach it to my class website for parents to use to help them in learning either English or Spanish, whichever language they need assistance in. I hope that it no...
