Literacy Update

We are finishing up Stone Fox, if you still have a copy of the book at your house, I ask that you please send it back to school. The students enjoyed the story of a ten year old Wyoming boy, who enters a dog sled race to save his grandfather's farm.

For our next book we will be back in our anthology reading Cactus Hotel by Brenda Z Guiberson. This story follows the life of a saguaro cactus from seed to death as it becomes home to birds, bats, insects, and many other animals that need shelter from their harsh desert surroundings.
   If you'd like to extend your child's understanding of any of our anthology stories you can visit the following website provided by Macmillan/McGraw-Hill:
