Woodstock Elementary School Wins

International Competition

Tori, Chase, Drew, Anmol, Danielle, and Igor

Congratulations to the Woodstock Elementary ThinkQuest team under the direction of Mrs. Kristin Lightsey and assistance of Mrs. Annette Harris (WES), Daniel Barbose (Brazil), and Ms. Ghandi (India) for being selected as a ThinkQuest First Prize Award winner in the 15 and under age category in the International ThinkQuest Narrative Competition.  Their team title, "Let's Rock and Roll", explores the evolution of rock and roll music and its impact on society.

 The site includes information about artists, fashion, language, and the impact of each decade of rock and roll on today's music. The colorful and informative site was created by students in the ThinkQuest project environment and included world-wide surveys in which over 3000 students participated.

Team members are Chase, Drew, Tori (WES) Danielle, Igor (Brazil), and Anmol (India). Woodstock students teamed with the students from Brazil and India to collaborate and submit a winning narrative website. Their website was selected as a prize winner by an international panel of judges, and is featured on the official ThinkQuest Winner's Page at: http://www.thinkquest.org/library/winners/2009_narrative.html

The site is designated as an award-winner in the popular ThinkQuest Library, visited by millions monthly. Every member of the team will receive a laptop computer! The team is also invited to attend ThinkQuest Live, an educational conference and awards event in San Fransisco, California in October for special recognition.
