This week the Matthews Library was full to bursting with activity and bustling with students.
The 7th graders in Ms. Kahn’s class came by again this week, although none came be-costumed this time. They continued their research on thinkers during the enlightenment period, this time connecting it to present day issues.
On Tuesday, the second graders of room 2C sang to the library assistant, Ms. Z-S. They were so cute! A big thank you to Ms. Melinson for ordering the singing telegram.
We held a Book Club meeting on Wednesday, and talked a bit about Valentines Day reads. Check out our Book Club post here for a more in depth description of what we discussed. As it was both Valentines Day and Wednesday, we caught plenty of students wearing pink.
On Thursday, the 6th grade got to hear from another professional in a scientific career. Valerie Termini, the chief deputy director of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, spoke to the students about working in wildlife ecology.
Most importantly, on Friday we added a new picture to our pets of Country Day wall. Thank you Sarah Parrish for the contribution!
We did it, Country Day! We made it to another vacation. We hope you enjoy the week off immensely. See you back at the end of February, and get ready for Read Across Country Day on March 1st!
