Second grade students visited Kindergarten to share the books they made as part of their end of module performance task. The books showcased informational writing comparing and contrasting MES to a school they researched from across the world. As a bonus, they also performed Readers' Theaters about incredible and unusual schools around the world! Way to go Stars!

The "Painted Essay" is an organizational structure to support informational writing in our new ELA program. This patterned structure is tied to certain colors so that students are able to use and internalize a template for thinking – and therefore, writing.

Kindergarteners used their imaginations to design and create a toy from objects found in the classroom and at home just like the character in the book they are reading. Then, they asked each other questions about the toys to practice speaking and listening standards. Great work!
