Fourth Grade Meet Mrs. Barbara Bush Virtually

Ms. Veronica Robinson's 4th grade class participated in a Virtual Field Trip featuring First Lady Barbara Bush. They were able to hear a variety of questions that were asked to Mrs. Bush from around the world including Ghana and Canada. The fourth graders also heard other students from the Houston area read the book Rushmore. As part of their demonstration of the book, they also learned about augmented reality. Augmented Reality brings the books read to life and Ms. Robinson's class thoroughly enjoyed learning about this new form of technology. They were very engaged during the question and answer part, as well as the augmented reality where the video came to life.
