May you be poor of misfortune,

rich in blessings,

slow to make enemies,

quick to make friends,

but rich or poor, quick or slow,

may you know nothing but

happiness from this day forward.

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

How to Steal a Dog

We are currently reading How to Steal a Dog with my group from Mrs. McCullouch's Class. We are about halfway through and we just created our own "Reward" signs for Willy, the dog who is missing in the story. The group worked well in teams and created terrific posters.

Great Job Kids!

Shiloh

Mr. Riddoch's students and I just finished reading the book Shiloh and we are now currently watching the movie. The students are taking notes as they notice similarities and differences between the two. I am very proud of them. In the thirty minutes that we have watched thus far they have taken a ton of notes.

They even brought in their own stuffed dogs to watch the movie with us. As the movie concludes the students will be writing a compare and contrast piece using the notes they took from watching the movie. I can't wait to get started!

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss

Today is Read Across America Day and it is also Dr. Seuss' birthday so we are celebrating with lots of his stories and reading as much as he can to honor him!
