Library today: we talked about fairy tales & used a fairy tale generator to create our own. Little cutie said, “Mrs. Kick, I’m going to use @HamlinIsland as my main character and @JoshAllenQB and @stefondiggs as his friends.” I respond, “Honey, Damar has his fairy tale ending”

Third graders listened to “My Pet Banana” by R. Broulliard to listen for theme in a story. We then created our own bet fruit/vegetable! Lots of smiles and giggles talking about taking a pumpkin for a walk 🎃

Third grade Builders Club started today and it was a hit! We had a great time exploring physics and movement by building a maze out of straws.
