What is real and what is not real?  Students at Art City Elementary were challenged this week to take time away from their electronics and do something real.  Students signed a wall and wrote some of their real-time experiences . . . "I built a snowman."  "I helped shovel snow from my neighbors' driveway."  "I read and played in the snow."  These are just a few of the fun things students at Art City Elementary School decided to do.
