After reading two similarly-themed Show-Me Award Nominees, our 1st & 2nd Grade students gained inspiration to write personal narratives about something they consider to be their "special treasure!" I've had to split these into two posts -- here are what the first graders came up with!

Our second graders have been exercising their creative writing skills! After a mini-unit about diaries, journals, and memoirs, and being inspired by books like "Memoirs of a Hamster," "Diary of a Worm," and "Diary of a Fly," they wrote animal memoir books of their own!

Hey, Library friends! I’m gearing up for our 4th Grade 50 States research project, and this year, I’m asking for some help…. I’ve contacted the tourism department of every state in the USA, asking for visitors guides, brochures, and/or fun souvenirs and kids activity books to share more about each state. 21 states have already answered the call and promised to send something, but that leaves 29 that are unaccounted for! If you or someone you know lives in one of the unmarked states and is willing to send something, it would make this project come to life in a BIG way for the kids who are researching those locations!

If you CAN assist with this initiative, you can mail something to me at:

As part of our third graders' first Digital Citizenship lesson of the year, they made Online Pledges -- promises they made about how they will be safe, responsible, and respectful when using technology, and turned them into mini-posters to help remind other students to do the right thing with their Chromebooks!

Our Kindergarten kiddos LOVED one of our recent read-alouds called "Ploof," which was about a mischievous cloud that could change into all kinds of shapes! Afterwards, the kids made some creative cloud craft projects of their own! Look at their amazing and sky-high creations!
