Lovitt's Lovable Learners

Check out Ms. Lovitt's 4th grade student-run website http://lovitts4thgrade.weebly.com/ms-lovitts-lovable-learners.html.  The students are blogging a minimum of once a month. They were allowed to pick which topic they would write about. The 4th graders love having something to call their own!

Children's Author and Illustrator Visits

Our Caraway Elementary students had the wonderful opportunity of meeting a published children's author and illustrator, Ben Hatke. Right now his most popular piece of work here at Caraway is the Bluebonnet awarded graphic novel Zita the Spacegirl. Mr. Sosa, our third grade teacher, had not had the chance to read it, but after Ben's visit he was excited to go purchase it, read it, and add it to his classroom library. 

In the computer lab the same day, Mr. Sosa posted a question on his class blog for the students to respond to over the author visit. Feel free to check out what some of the students said about Ben's presentation at this link.  All the teachers and students enjoyed the presentation very much. We thank our librarian, Mrs. Letendre, for this special treat.
