Building for Sam, A Literacy Celebration, and More!
Today was a very exciting day back! We received a note from Sam, our library mouse, asking us to build a city for him and his relatives (he said he ran out of room in the library). With the boxes we have collected from families, we will be planning for and creating a large dwelling for Sam and his family! Today, we thought about some questions we will need answered before we start our plans
1. How many mice are there?
2. What things do you need?
The kids are so excited. I am optimistic this will turn not only into a great geometry experience, but also support us as we learn to work as a team, negotiate, and use communication skills.
We also picked a day for our Literacy Celebration. Our class will be hosting this event to showcase our published pieces of writing from Story Workshop. The date we chose will be the evening of the January 24th, at 6pm. More information will be sent home shortly!
