Literacy Night happens every year during the first week in March. This night is something the elementary school puts on to celebrate all of the good things the kids are learning in the areas of literacy, reading, writing, and the language arts. We love participating in this because the kids get free books, and they get to show off in their classroom plays.
First, we watched Logan sing and recite a few poems with the other first graders. This started the night off. It has been fun watching all of the kids sings these songs and poems when they were in first grade.
Next, we went to Colby's classroom where he participated in reading a few "two voice" poems with some of the other kids in his class. Colby's poems were all about bugs so they made funny bug hats to wear while reading. They all did a great job.
During the Literacy night, Emily and her friend, Ayzleigh, had a craft sale to raise money for the school gardens. They want to get these gardens up and running so that when they get into sixth grade, they can use them. They had a pretty successful sale and made a little over $200!
This next picture doesn't have anything to do with literacy night but it is something I have been working on.
I made another T-shirt quilt top. This one is made of all of Russell's fire and EMS shirts he has collected over the years. I bordered it with a flame material. I think it turned out good.
Good job everyone.
