Author Visit: Nan Marino

The fourth grade at Shoemaker Elementary had an author visit via Skype on Wednesday, 12/16 with published author Nan Marino to learn more about the writing process.  Our fourth graders asked thoughtful questions to Ms. Marino and learned a lot.  They were especially excited to learn that published authors experience some of the same struggles that we do as writers.  

Embrace the struggle, authors!

Hour of Code (Star Wars Day)

Today we celebrated the release of the new Star Wars movie by doing some coding!  We went to code.org and participated in the Hour of Code by coding a Star Wars game.  

We had a blast, and May the Force be with you!
