| Maine Author Kevin Hawkes tells us about how he gets ideas for books. |
 |
| He shared his sketchbook with us, full of drawings and ideas for stories. |
 |
| We loved it when he drew for us and showed us how to make shadows! |
 |
| One of our classmates go to make random lines for him..... |
 |
| and then he turned it into a character before our eyes! |
 |
| Hula Hoop Rock Paper Scissors at Field Day |
 |
| A fierce game of tug of war. Pols vs. Vise! |
 |
| The bouncy house is a HUGE hit with the kids! |
 |
| And the parachute is another favorite! |
 |
| We played Octopus! These kids are hard to catch, trust me! |
 |
| A little Duck, Duck Goose for a much needed break |
 |
| We ended with water relays! |
 |
| Back in class, ready for a reading break..... |
 |
| This week we worked hard on our owl research. |
 |
| We took notes from common texts and used the notes to write our reports. |
 |
| We practiced owl drawings several times using a step by step drawing guide. |
 |
| Putting the final product together |
 |
| Several drafts of owl drawings on one page |
 |
| Everyone writes their own report. |
 |
| Research, research, research! The kids will now be ready to research a bird of their choice for their individual project. |
