4th graders in library learned about wordless picture books. In these photos, they are taking turns narrating the pages to comprehend the story together. They then created their own wordless picture books!
2nd graders in library learned about the origin of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, then created their own balloon characters for a mini parade!
It is tradition in the Salish and Kootenai tribes for children to gather and listen to the folktale Coyote Steals Fire around the time of the first snowfall. 5th graders during library did so, then played charades; trying to guess which traditional use of fire was being acted out.

Parents/Guardians we are beginning to use this visual along with dialogue in our classrooms. This is a way for our students to self-identify their feelings as well as restorative practices and techniques to be a Victor who is Above the Line moving forward to accomplish great things as opposed to a Victim. We have visuals for this in every classroom and throughout our building. This helps teachers and students to develop effective strategies and dialogue together in building a positive culture. We want to communicate this with Parent/Guardians and please feel free to reinforce this type of dialogue at home as well if you choose.
