Ken Rice Visits Mrs. Callahan's Classroom

KDKA-TV Anchorman Ken Rice paid a visit to the fourth graders in Mrs. Callahan's room to get them excited about reading.  Even though Mr. Rice works in television, he explained to the students the importance of not relying on television as their only source of news.  He encouraged the students to get in the habit of reading newspapers and books as comprehensive sources of information.  He also read poems from a favorite book of poems called If Kids Ruled the School, and talked to the students about television news.  The students presented Mr. Rice with a cake to take back to his colleagues at KDKA.  Thank you, Mr. Rice, for taking the time to visit with us.

Mr. Rice asks the students questions to see how much they know about television news.

Mr. Rice shared with us some of his favorite poems from the book, If Kids Ruled the School.
Mr. Rice shows us how television weathermen stand in front of a blank green screen to deliver the weather report.
