Some students chose to do the extra credit I offered for the third quarter. They were to write a newscast about the Iditarod. Here are a few that recorded their casts!

HiStOrY wAs MaDe...
on March 16, 2010 when Iditarod musher, Lance Mackey, crossed the finish line in Nome! This is the 4th consecutive year he has been the first across the treacherous Alaskan terrain to arrive in Nome during the Alaskan Iditarod. It took him 8 days 23 hours to complete the journey and he finished with 11 dogs on his tugline. He won $50,400 and a new Dodge truck. The students have loved watching him move his way to the top! Way to go Lance Mackey!!!

The students have chosen their mushers and are ready to see if Lance Mackey can make history by winning for the 4th consecutive year. It will be an exciting trip over the Alaskan terrain and we are all looking forward to tracking the mushers with GPS and watching some live events. Stay tuned for more about the Alaskan Iditarod!
