CCMS 8th Graders Working On “Untold Stories of Riverside Cemetery”

KCHA welcomed Charles City Middle School 8th Grade Language Arts Instructor Melanie Van Soelen, along with a few of her students, Ana, Landon and Henry, to chat about the “Untold Stories of Riverside Cemetery”. CCMS 8th graders have been working on that collaborative project based learning assignment in social studies and language arts. To hear more about what the students are planning, tap play below.

The students will be hosting an open house on Monday May 15 at the Riverside Cemetery in Charles City from about 12-2pm.

Chris Berg

Chris was born in Webster City and raised in Charles City, which basically means he’s been corn‑fed and radio‑bred since day one. As a kid, he was always caught singing along to the radio — and while he’ll tell you he’s great at karaoke, let’s just say the audience’s ears often file a noise complaint. When he’s not busy butchering ‘80s power ballads, Chris enjoys starting overly ambitious home projects that rarely make it past the “great idea” stage. He lives in Charles City with his endlessly patient wife Vicki and their kids, Brynlee and Jaxon, who have already perfected the art of the eye‑roll every time Dad cracks another “dad joke.”
