It has masks to decorate, Old Befana book to read, Pizzelle cookies to try, and napkins for our secret notes!  (Children in Italy write notes to their families and hide them in napkins at the dinner table)

Visiting Mr. Lasher’s Fifth Graders to Hear Their Poems!

Creating Our Sunsets Inspired by the Book Legend of the Indian Paintbrush.

Little Gopher had a challenge to find the materials to make sunset paints.  My students had a challenge to mix paints in order to make the sunset colors!  They persevered and look at the results!  

Native Americans Then and Now!

I placed some photos of Native Americans in front of my students and asked them to tell me which were Native Americans and which were not. They sorted them and said why they thought they weren’t Native Americans.  When I told them all of the photos were Native Americans, they could not believe it!  I feel it is important to show students the Native Americans of today as well as the past.
