Mrs. Barletta's first graders wrote to LEGOs and Mattel during their correspondence unit and received responses from them this week.
This month's Character Strong trait is Cooperation! Our second-grade students read The Concrete Garden by Bobbie Kalman is a children's book that focuses on the theme of cooperation and community. The story centers around a girl who takes a box of chalk and begins drawing a map on the sidewalk. The map eventually becomes a plan for a garden in the middle of a city, and as the story progresses, different people in the neighborhood come together to contribute and help transform the concrete space into a beautiful, thriving garden. The book highlights the importance of teamwork, creativity, and the positive impact that cooperation can have on a community. Inspired by the book, our students worked together to design and build our very own Concrete Garden, bringing teamwork and creativity to life.
