There is something incredibly magical about watching a room full of 3rd graders realize how big, and yet how small, our world really is. The 3rd grade classrooms transformed into a terminal for global explorers as we kicked off our Holidays Around the World research.

Mrs. Wynes and her grade 4 students had the opportunity this week to learn about Vincent van Gogh and his painting The Starry Night. Using the 6 step writing process, they then wrote about what they might wish for on a starry night. They are proud and we are too!
