Snowmen at Night

In writing workshop, we have been using a structure to our writing which we call "Hamburger Writing".  We used this structure of writing to respond to the book Snowmen at Night.  We then decided to make an I-Movie about what we think snowmen do at night.  We incorporated some fabulous art techniques to create community paper and the fun began!  Here is our first class I-Movie!  We shared this today with the whole school at our school-wide meeting.



School-Wide Meeting

Each month UMS students gather together for a school wide meeting.  We do this to establish a positive school community.  Today our class lead the greeting at our meeting.  Mrs. Lucier was able to video it for our class.  We would like to share it with you!
