"Today Mrs. Fiske came in with two helpers, to help us make paper cranes. There is a first grader and she has Leukemia, there is a Japanese legend that says if you make one thousand paper cranes it grants a wish for love or health, so our school set a goal to make one thousand cranes for her, and we've already reached our goal!" ~ Ella

"At the end of the day we had a huge cleaning activity, we got a lot accomplished! We cleaned the library, the free choice bins and the teacher bins, and we cleaned our desks." ~ Kolby

"When Mrs. O'Connell was teaching math, if you were done you could silent read. Mary and I started buddy reading The BFG, which stands for the big friendly giant. We got to chapter five." ~ Abby

"During library Mrs. O'Connell came in and helped us find a book at or slightly above our lexile, because some people in our class were reading below or way above their lexile. I found the book Found, by Haddix." ~ Chase

"In math our math lesson was so hard that Mrs. O'Connell helped us with most of it. It was "I can add and multiply unit fraction to build fractions great that 1." ~ Kylee

"Because it was pouring down rain we had to have indoor recess, Sean and I played "Speed-stack Kendoma" which we made up." ~ Kaydin
