Proud of these 2nd graders who went through the whole research process this week- grouping closed questions & writing open questions, taking notes in their own words from multiple print & digital sources, synthesizing the info, & citing sources @nbes220 @kayteemi #nbscoltpride

So grateful to have Rekha S. Rajan at NBS today, teaching students about writing, growth mindset, and Amazing Landmarks! Can't wait to read more of the book. #coltpride @nbes220
After reading variations of folktales, 1st graders used the engineering design process to design and build their own Little Red Forts. Thankfully, nobody said, “Not I!” @nbes220 #ColtPride #SeeTheStudent220
Engineering with empathy. After reading Not So Different, Winter’s Tail, and Beauty and the Beak, these 5th graders are building animal aide prototypes. @nbes220 #ColtPride #SeeTheStudent
Congratulations to Mrs. Settles’ first recipient of the “Choose Kind” award. He showed kindness to a classmate today that was above and beyond our expected behavior. #coltpride #Seethestudent220 @NBES220
1st graders got a “taste” of the books our library has to offer at the Colt Cafe. Now they are ready to sink their teeth into these great books. @nbes220 @barrington220 #coltpride #SeetheStudent220

In Nov. 2018, I received an email from a Paradise, Ca. family, inviting me to visit & hear their story of living through the Camp wildfire. That visit led to my 20th I Survived book, coming out next month. It's one of the most special to me, and I can't wait to share with readers
