What's Doin' in February...

It's been a month since my last post here and the Memorial School library has been busy with researchers coming and going. We've wrapped up the Grade 2 Continents research and podcasting project and Grade 5 has finished with their research on Explorers of North America. Now we have begun Grade 3's research on Revolutionary Figures and our 4th graders continue to research landmarks across the U.S.A.

Our Kindergarteners recently authored non-fiction books about Dinosaurs and next week we will take a look at biographies and try our hand at writing a Biography about someone very special.

And of course in February we are celebrating Presidents, Black Americans and Valentine's Day and reading all about these special celebrations!

We're gearing up for Read Across America Day on March 2nd when the whole school will Drop Everything And Read and many grades will celebrate the work of Dr. Seuss. Til then...

Happy Reading!
