The kindergarten students built a safe wall for Humpty Dumpty after reading the story "After the Fall".
Fourth and Fifth grade students had their second Book Club meeting under the direction of Mrs. Reynolds. They are currently reading a historical fiction story Called Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis. The story takes place during the Great Depression and follows a young boy in search of his father. They has student-led discussions on topics in the novel that were important to them. 📚🤓
