What better way to make the Renaissance come alive than to visit the Detroit Institute of Arts! We had a wonderful day and our DIA tour guides were amazing. I enjoyed every second of taking my 5th graders on this field trip! #mylsps
An awesome star ring from a thoughtful and caring All Star student. Yesterday I told him I loved his rings and that I like wearing rings too. Today he came in with a star ring just for me! ๐ I proudly wore it all day! Violet is a special place! ๐
According to my 5th graders, here is what we should expect of ourselves and our classmates this school year. Way to go 5th grade All Stars! ๐๐ป โญ๏ธ Officially posted in our classroom!
Well, this is a lovely class! Iโm so excited to spend a school year with them. My favorite kind of people are kind (and funny ๐) people and it looks like I found them! ๐
It has been a beautiful, but emotional ๐ฅฒ week. We said goodbye to these Violet fifth graders. Off to middle school they go! The fifth grade promotion and skating party were so much fun. I hope these kiddos enjoyed it as much as I did. ๐ ๐๐ #mylsps@VioletAllStars
BEST DAY EVER! Tree Runner Adventure Park never disappoints. We loved watching these 5th graders in action. Today was a gift! ๐ #mylsps@VioletAllStars
There is something so beautiful about open ended art projects with children. It is magical to see what they create they are given artistic freedom! #mylsps
Leadership: You value each member of your group and inspire people to do their best. I canโt think of a more important P2 character strength for 5th graders! Lead on, 5th grade ALL STARS!

We participated in a virtual visit today with Amanda Gorman. Wow! Change Sings is an inspiring and beautiful picture book for readers of all ages. Thank you @Flipgrid for connecting us with such a powerful author and an amazing illustrator too. #mylsps
