Author Kate Messner gave a wonderful presentation to all our CJL students about her books and how she came up with the stories. She also explained how the process works in creating a story and working with a publisher and illustrator. The Sanford District purchased a different book for each grade level and they were handed out to every student the day of the presentation. The students were all very excited about the author and books.
In Music, second graders have been learning how to read and perform quarter- and eighth-note rhythms. Mrs. Loignon's class practiced these rhythms with their voices, with clapping, and finally, on the drums!
Compliment Web at Carl J. Lamb Shaylyn our SEL kindergarten - Grade 1 Teacher built a compliment web as a way to show respect to each other. Each student passed the yarn ball to someone they wanted to give a compliment to while holding a piece of the yarn. They talked about how they are all connected to each other by being kind and respectful to each other. They were challenged to give a compliment to at least one person a day for the month of May.
