George Washington, father of our country

Like all Monday mornings, we chose new jobs and teams.

Writer's Workshop: After taking time to talk about our breaks, students had the chance to write in their Source Books about what they did during the week off.

Social Studies: We had an introduction of George Washington, then the students read leveled readers about George Washington, our first president and Father of our Country. Finally, students had a chance to color a portrait of President Washington.

Library: We listened to a story from Mrs. Williams called Beatrice Doesn't Want To and then checked out our own books.

Art: We finished the last rotation for Chinese New Year today with the kids learning how to paint a Chinese character, which means "Spring is Coming".
