Growing as inquirers! Students are working on a journalistic piece and interviewed our librarian to learn more facts before writing an article about a school event. Curiosity and open ended questions to enhance their writing. @GWAC_Library

My heart is so filled from this book from @BRENDAN_WENZEL, and it’s quickly becoming a student favorite as well. In celebration of stable elements in the #nature that have that serve populations both ecologically and emotionally, this stone means so much to so many. 💛
