Let's Talk About Race
Author, Julius Lester, included these words in "Let's Talk about Race," “I am a story. So are you.” The book discusses how each individual has many different elements to their "story," from family, to names, to likes and dislikes, and even race. Students participated in a Think-Pair-Share activity to discuss important questions about race, prejudice, and discrimination. Each child created their own "I Am a Story" poster and explored what makes him/her special.
The Planeteers' Litter Walk
The Third Grade class are The Planeteers. They help to create a better world by being kind to the Earth and all that live on it. This week we took our first litter walk around our community. Afterwards, we discussed why keeping our community clean is so important.
