Monday Update
Hi Parents,
We hope you enjoy these delicious sandwiches with everything on them! They were inspired by artist Claus Oldenburg.... he creates giant sculptures and pieces of art that are full of humor and surprise....just like our sandwiches.
Thank you to Mrs. Zuber for reading us two tantalizing books about crazy sandwiches. That got us in the mood to create!
Today, we read about how the character Gooney Bird Greene got her name and started brainstorming ways to write about what our names mean to us.
Students may be asking you the following questions:
1. How did you pick my name?
2. What other names were you thinking of giving me?
3. Does my name have a special meaning?
We will be organzing our ideas in a pre-write, and then we will be writing paragraphs to create an essay about our names. The more information they have... the better!
Thank you to everyone who brought in yellow ribbons for our Veteran's Day Wall.
