Kindergarten students at South Bay Elementary School are participating in an author study by reading books by Jan Brett. They recently read “The Mitten,” a story about many animals that congregate inside of a mitten. The kindergartners participated in partner reading, identified different sight words and retold the story. To complete the lesson, students colored and cut out giant mittens depicting the scene in the story.

Fifth graders in Mr. Campbell and Ms. Stewart’s class at South Bay Elementary School recently completed a project that tied into their English language arts nonfiction unit on immigration.

Working in small groups, the students collaborated on research reports centered on immigration issues. They conducted their research online and were also visited by guest speakers who discussed various topics. Most notably, they studied Ellis Island and Angel Island.

After completing their research, the students divided their information into subtopics, which were then transferred to a trifold presentation board. The class held a gallery walk and invited guests and students to view their research presentations.
