The Hiawatha Buzz!
September 27th, 2024
Dear Hiawatha Community,
It's been an exciting week here at Hiawatha! Yesterday we had a special visit for our whole school celebration from the Incredibles Family, a minion and Gru and Paw Patrol! Students had fun giving high fives, dancing and being together in the sunshine.
Today we have our author visit with David Covell, author of Run Wild and Gather Round, Students got to learn about how authors get their ideas and inspiration. Second and third graders created some of their own inspirations. During our Green Mountain Sing, we got to sing a song inspired by his book, Gather Round. Check it out Here: Circle Song. Ask your child what they like best about the visit.
I will be working at school over break. If you would like any free books, please stop by and take as many as you would like. I hope everyone has a safe and healthy break.
Take great care,
Katherine
