Students in second grade library class read Balloons Over Broadway, which tells the story of Tony Sarg, the puppeteer who invented the giant balloons for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. After reading, they worked in small groups to create their own balloons and paraded them down the library.

In 3rd Grade, we read Our Table by Peter H. Reynolds. The book is a fable about the importance of human connection, family traditions, and the impact of technology. After reading, students worked together to build a table for their feast. Through perseverance and collaboration, they came to understand how important it is to communicate with one another.

Whitehall Multilingual Learners’ Project (grades K-4)

Students learned about the life and legacy of Frida Kahlo as a part of celebrating Hispanic heritage month. We learned about her life challenges, explored her art work, and analyzed figurative language in her famous quote:

“FEET, WHAT DO I NEED YOU FOR

WHEN I HAVE WINGS TO FLY”
