Callum cooked his catch.

Good Morning,
  I love all of the positivity that your children bring to morning meeting each day.  It is such a fun group to work with and has made this process so much easier.  Thank you for having such wonderful kids.

Mabel caught this beautiful rainbow trout.

 During writing time today, we worked on a prompt that asked them to choose if remote learning or learning at school was better for them.  Today they worked on brainstorming their reasons and each wrote an introduction to their piece.  Thursday's writing class will focus on writing detailed support of their opinion and a closing.  As I stated yesterday, I wanted to hear from them because they didn't get a chance to express their voice through the HUUSD survey.

  Today we read A Perfectly Messed-Up Story by Patrick McDonnell.  "In this interactive and engaging read-aloud, bestselling author and award-winning artist Patrick McDonnell creates a funny, engaging, and almost perfect story about embracing life's messes.  Little Louie's story keeps getting messed up, and he's not happy about it! What's the point of telling his tale if he can't tell it perfectly? But when he stops and takes a deep breath, he realizes that everything is actually just fine, and his story is a good one--imperfections and all."
