 IT’S TIME TO SEE WHAT YOU HAD TO SAY ABOUT LAST WEEK’S EPISODE.  

ALYSSA FROM SAINT PETER SCHOOL RESPONDED TO OUR QUESTION ABOUT THE BEST WAY TO LEARN:  
I PREFER THE TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM OVER LEARNING ONLINE BECAUSE I ENJOY INTERACTING WITH MY FRIENDS THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL DAY.  I LEARN FROM THEM. I LIKE HAVING CONTACT WITH MY TEACHER FACE TO FACE. I WOULD GET DISTRACTED TOO EASILY IF I TRIED ONLINE SCHOOLING.   

MAYA FROM BEXLEY SCHOOLS GOT CREATIVE AND WROTE US A POEM IN RESPONSE TO LAST WEEK’S QUESTION:  
THERE ARE MANY MORE WAYS TO LEARN THEN JUST ONE, ONLINE, IN A CLASS ROOM THERE ALL SO MUCH FUN! WHEN LEARNING I PREFER IN A CLASS TO DO IT BUT OTHERS MAY THINK THERE IS NOT MUCH TO IT ! FOR LEARNING THERE'S NOT JUST ONE THING YOU CAN DO, I LOVE THE CLASSROOM... BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU?  

DEANNA FROM NCH MIDDLE SCHOOL WROTE US ABOUT 9/11:  
I WAS REALLY TOUCHED BY THE ARTICLE: SEPTEMBER 11TH REMEMBERED. IT’S SO HARD TO BELIEVE THIS TRAGIC EVENT HAPPENED OVER 15 YEARS AGO. AMERICA CELEBRATING AROUND THE WORLD THIS YEAR WAS A GREAT WAY TO HONOR THE PEOPLE AFFECTED. ALTHOUGH I WAS NOT BORN DURING THIS TIME I AM STILL SADDENED AT THIS SITUATION. I WILL ALWAYS SHOW MY RESPECT TOWARDS SEPTEMBER 11TH. THANK YOU NEWSDEPTH FOR YOUR GREAT STORIES THIS WEEK!  

WE ALSO GOT A TWEET FROM MRS. CALLAHAN’S CLASS IN NORTH CANTON: [PICTURE] OH, LOOK AT THAT! THEY WRITE:  FIRST NEWSDEPTH OF THE 2016-2017 SCHOOL YEAR IN MRS. CALLAHAN'S CLASS! WE LOVE NEWSDEPTH!  

AND LAST WEEK, WE ASKED TEACHERS TO WRITE IN AND TELL US HOW LONG THEY’VE HAVE BEEN WATCHING. MR. Y WROTE: I'VE BEEN WATCHING NEWSDEPTH WITH MY 4TH GRADE CLASSES EVERY YEAR SINCE 2005! BUT DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT WHEN I WAS A KID. DRATS.
