3. We came to know some facts about the
hurricane out of the project work
Currently we are taking part in an
international project moderated by
Barry Kramer, a New Jerseyan 5th
grade teacher in Franklin Township
Board of Education. He appeared to
be in the eye of the hurricane
It was from Barry that we have got some personal
news about the hurricane, and, hence, acquired a
kind of personal interest in the events.

4. Most likely I was spared the
worst of it
 We fared fairly well through the storm….
because my house is on a hill and was
sheltered from the worst of the winds….
Many trees fell and almost everyone lost
power and services …Since my house is
safe and has power and phone access, I
have been housing family here while they
wait for their homes to get power (Barry)
