We Participated in An Hour of Code!!!

 We learned about coding and why it is so important to learn how to code.  Then we dove in and started coding!  We love to code and try to find time in our day to code as much as we can!  We had so much fun participating in this amazing worldwide event!  There are links for the Hour of Code website and Scratch on our blog!

We Got To Meet One Of Our Favorite Authors!!!

 Christina Soontornvat visited RES virtually on Thursday!  She showed us how she made her latest graphic novel The Tryout and inspired us to write and read and maybe grow up to be authors ourselves!  We felt so lucky to meet her and learn about her writing process!

We Published Our Stories!!!

 After planning, writing, revising and editing our narratives, we made beautiful books to hold our stories, then illustrated them with care.  We were so excited to share them with one another and publish the books to our library!

Taking Care Of Our Bodies & Brains While Also Having Fun!!!

 We take movement breaks and practice mindfulness everyday.  It is very important to us that we take care of our bodies and brains.  One way we make movement breaks even more fun and meaningful, is by singing, signing and dancing to Katy Perry's song "Firework".  One day when Ms. Vogel was visiting our classroom, she took this video of our movement break!  I hope you enjoy it!  I will record another video of ALL the kids singing and signing for you soon!
