Ms. VanDyke spent countless hours this summer organizing her classroom library into genre specific baskets to make it easier for her students to find books that interest them!
Furthermore, she lead the charge on "Dot Day" to create a gorgeous collaborative mural at the end of our main hallway, encourage all to "make their mark!"
Mrs. Cheverie hosted a "book tasting" in her class complete with chocolate chip muffins! Students learned about various genres of books and were asked to quickly skim through 5-6 books and jot down notes about genre, plot, and a rating of whether they want to read it this year.
All that we are is story. From the moment we are born to the time we continue on our spirit journey, we are involved in the creation of the story of our time here. It is what we arrive with. It is all we leave behind. We are not the things we accumulate. We are not the things we deem important. We are story. All of us. What comes to matter then is the creation of the best possible story we can while we’re here; you, me, us, together. When we can do that and we take the time to share those stories with each other, we get bigger inside, we see each other, we recognize our kinship – we change the world, one story at a time…
