Olivia and Sophia are interviewing each other!

In Writer’s Workshop we have been talking a lot about biographies.  Our next step in this is that the kids are going to write biographies about each other.  Yesterday we talked about what was important to know and came up with questions to ask.  Today the kids got a chance to interview their partners.  It was wonderful to see them sharing their own personal stories with others!

Kristien and Reid are really into their interviews!

Our recycling poster

We are on a roll with our recycling project!  This past week a small group has been working with Mrs. Grotjan and Miss Robison on a recycling poster.  After collecting the recycling over the past month, the kids decided that we needed some recycling posters to remind all the friends at our school to recycle.  Today we presented it the the entire class and figured out where we wanted to hang the multiple copies of the posters.

After this conversation I asked the class, “What are our next steps?”  They decided that they still indeed wanted to write the mayor about recycling.  So this afternoon I met with a small group of friends to brainstorm ideas.  We figured out that we need to write Mr. Ballard about recycling and saving our planet by saving our trees.  Keep checking back to see where this portion goes!

Finally, as it is the first of the month please send in snacks.  We are running very low.  Thank you!!!
