For today's "Set the Stage to Engage" event, our students were transported into an Alaskan fishing village as part of our The Year of Miss Agnes novel study!
In Mrs. H's room, the kiddos tackled five math stations with Alaska-related math tasks.
And in my classroom, they participated in RLA challenges based on the novel and related web articles.
These kiddos did a fantastic job with some challenging Alaska-themed tasks!
After completing the challenges, we celebrated with Miss Agnes' tea!
We would like to give a HUGE thank you to our fantastic room moms and all of the parents who helped transform the classrooms and volunteered at today's event!
"I didn't want Miss Agnes to ever stop reading. I felt as if I really was in that dark, deep forest with trees taller than you ever heard of, and when she stopped, I felt shocked, as if I'd come out of a dream."
The kiddos and I have experienced this same feeling several times in the past couple weeks as we have read The Year of Miss Agnes! And today we got to live in the role of the characters for a couple of hours! What an exciting day! Books are awesome! Kids are awesome!
