Room 312 wrapped up the month of October by continuing our character based discussion work in ELA. We recently read the book, The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind. Students were tasked with identifying certain characteristics that the main character displayed. And more importantly, backing up their contentions with evidence from the text. I enjoyed hearing students express their opinions and back them up convincingly.

We also were lucky to once again meet with our book buddies in Ms. Dichter's class. Students have been having a great time working with their younger counterparts.

Finally, I wanted to thank all of the parent volunteers who donated their time to make our fall science activity a success today. The kids had a great time and were highly entertained and engaged.

I hope everyone has a nice weekend and enjoys the holiday.
