3rd grade is finishing up their novel unit, A Letter to Mrs. Roosevelt. This story is about a little girl and her family enduring the hardships of the Great Depression. 3rd grade said they would have never picked this book up because of the cover, but it is turning into one of their favorite stories! Never judge a book by its cover.

The 2nd-grade students are using their measuring skills to add a little Christmas décor to their desks. Their math challenge was to measure their desk in centimeters and then measure a piece of garland to decorate with. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here!
