Building boxes for our BookShelfie carousel

January 9 - 13, 2016

   I was glad to be back for a great first week of 2017, and I hope the ice doesn't keep us away for another day of learning tomorrow! Stay tuned... 🌨❄️ Make it a great week, everyone!

Topics to Talk About at Home

We built boxes in class on Friday. They will be used on the carousel shelf to showcase their BookShelfie pictures in class. This is another way for students to collaborate about their favorite books. Why is it important to learn skills like building and crafting boxes with our hands, rather than just purchasing boxes from the store?
