Moving Up
It is official! We have a new group of third grade Wildcats ready for Columbus Elementary School. Our families joined us in the Westlake High School John S. Whearty Theater to celebrate. Thank you to all of our familes, many of who have been with us for ten years. We will miss you!
Library Learning and Summer Reading with Mrs. Mac
It’s been a busy month in the library! All three grades read and enjoyed Our Table by Peter H. Reynolds. This is a wonderful book about how a family works together to build a new table around which they can gather and spend time together. Then students took the “Table Challenge” where they were tasked with building a strong table just like the characters in the book. The catch? Students could only use three pieces of 8.5 by 11 printer paper and tape.
Check out the photos below for an idea of the fun we had trying out this challenge.
All three grades also enjoyed a wonderful visit with Miss Debbie from Mt. Pleasant Public Library. She talked to all classes about the great programs the public library has in store for everyone this summer so please consider signing up for the summer reading challenge. You can find information about that here.
Also, please check out the new and beautiful website that CES’s librarian Kristin Finno put together for summer reading. She included many wonderful reading resources and you can find my summer reading recommendations for Hawthorne students. Please click on the link below to access the site.
I’ve truly enjoyed getting to know your children this year. Their creativity and curiosity is delightful and inspiring and I look forward to continuing this reading journey next September.
Until then, I wish you all a happy, relaxing, wonderful summer filled with fireflies, beach days, ice cream and of course, lots of books.
Mrs. Mac
