Authors We Know Wall for K-2nd grades/The Hobbit Projects by 8th graders

Had some help yesterday with a new feature specifically targeting K-2nd graders: the "Authors We Know" wall. Right over the pillows we have begun a bulletin board that will develop as the year progresses. It will list all the authors that we study in library for K-2nd grades as well as the authors they are studying in their classes. Fifth graders Julianna, Isabelle, Emily, Kristina, and Ashley did the coloring and mounting of the authors and center bubble for our "web" (graphic organizer where ideas relating to a topic are placed in circles surrounding the bubble with the main topic). Great job, girls!

Mrs. Whitehorn's 8th graders are reading "The Hobbit" and created some fabulous projects. Several of these are in the process of being displayed on the white wall at the back of the High School Room where they will be showcased for a season to add some warmth, texture and color. Terrific work by Damaris, Jordan, and Virginia!
