Argh!!! - Late but worth it...

September 19 is National Talk Like a Pirate Day.

What do you do when you have a student who's obsessed with pirates?  Celebrate it!



These two boys had so many pirate clothing items that they shared with others.

In Charge

I love putting kids in charge of the room.  They take care of moving pictures, organizing the library and drawers, and lately, taking care of checking out books.

I didn't think anything of it when I handed the kids my phone to take and delete photos. 

Notice the selfie...

Two big words. 

They were said by this boy who got a quick lesson in character profiles after school. (He wanted to draw his characters at home.)  

Why would I say no to that?


Amazing lesson today

Don't give up!!!

He wasn't sure he'd make it through but he kept going and finished the book.
