Antonym Songs
We have been working on antonyms in Reading class. For an assignment, students worked with a partner to choose one of their favorite songs playing on the radio today. Then, they printed the lyrics and changed some of the words using antonyms and performed them in class.

Chris Van Allsburg
We kicked off our Chris Van Allsburg unit by reading The Wreck of the Zephyr. The students have the opportunity to do extra credit in Reading by creating a model of the Zephyr. Students are excited to read more Chris Van Allsburg books because they know he has written Jumanji and The Polar Express. Stay tuned for pictures of their sailboats and more with Chris Van Allsburg!
