Grandparents and Special Friends

Despite the inclement weather, everyone kept safe and dry today during Grandparents' and Special Friends' Day.  It was great to meet so many people who are special in the lives of these children.  They are so loved! Click here to see pictures of the day.

Let the Research Begin!

It is hard to believe that the time has come to begin the Road to Research for the Biography Tea! After using the process as a class to research Molly Brown, then using the process with a buddy to research an important person in Colorado's history, the students are finally on their own to research the person they have chosen. Today is all about Stop 1: Read. The students read the book from cover to cover. No one begins note taking until they have read the entire book at least twice, so we'll be at this stop for a day or two. Here are some pictures of them in action.
