So far they have hit the eight-minute mark and continue to work very hard every Friday to reach their goal. Johnson's hope is that the class will learn the importance of working hard to find success in life by learning to believe in themselves. This week WHA is hosting a Scholastic Book Fair. This is a summer clearance priced fair. Everyone is welcome to come shop and pick up some summer reading at great prices.
Donations are always welcome for our classrooms and library.
Thanks to the parent group for organizing and staffing this event. Sunday, April 22, was Earth Day. Several classes at WHA had outdoor projects going on to celebrate this special day. The fifth-grade class read The Great Kapok Tree by Lynne Cherry and illustrated scenes from this book. The class watched a video about endangered North American species and enjoyed tropical snacks while discussing the connection of all life forms on our planet.
