Week 26 - 27 (February 27 - March 10)
Black History: Getting to Know Malcolm X
We 3rd grade teachers got together and decided to do a concept day in order to honor Black History Month. Each teacher chose a different African American who may not be as well known as others and we presented that person to each 3rd grade class. The students were so consumed with the different people and wanted to know more. Many of our kids have now begun their own research to find out more about these inspiring African Americans. I chose to present Malcolm X to the students because so many of them know Martin Luther King Jr. but not many of them know Malcolm. They were really excited to learn more about him, who he was, and what he stood for.

Celebrating Dr. Seus
The kids had a great time learning about Dr. Seuss and engaging in the different dress up days to honor his work and contributions.
For the Love of Reading
Nothing warms my heart more than independent reading time. Our kids love and cherish their reading time.
