Students in Mrs. Millsap's 3rd grade classroom are reading Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein, and in an attempt to bring context and meaning to the story, Mrs. Millsap brought her students into the library to get a closer look at the Dewey Decimal System.
In the story, Mr. Lemoncello's Library has a different room for each section of the Dewey Decimal system that correlates with what is actually shelved in that section of the library.
For example,
398.2 has Fairy Tales.
520 has Space.
636 has Pets.

"When the skeleton went to school, he learned all about his bones in the osteoclass!"
When 4th graders went to school, they learned all about skeletons in science! Students got to see more closely how their bones and tendons work together to allow their hands to work, in a Mystery Science lesson.

Scrambled Sentences!

Mrs. Francis has begun to implement something really neat to dress up our walls at Claremont: The Brag Board.
The Brag Board serves to encourage students to engage in art outside of the classroom. Anything they bring to Mrs. Francis goes on the wall, and as you can see, it's getting full fast!

Have you heard of the Switch Witch? On this #wellnesswednesday, we want to introduce you!
- The Switch Witch Poem -
I am the Switch Witch
from the land of Moonlight.
I come to trade candy,
on Halloween night.
With my black cat Zoom,
I ride on my broom,
searching here and there,
for a child who likes to share.
My cat loves candy,
that's what he most enjoys.
So leave him your stash,
Ill switch it for a toy!
Pick out a few treats,
to keep with you here,
leave the rest in your basket,
and on Halloween night,
a new toy will appear!
*found at twichetts.com
We love the idea of a Switch Witch, because it allows children to participate in Halloween, get lots of candy, and then choose some favorites to keep without having candy in the house for weeks on end!
What do you think? Tell us in the comments.
