One 8th grade ELA class is practicing citing textual evidence by explaining their interpretative drawings of the hounds in Farenheit 451. I think this one really captures the "spider" reference in the book! @redstormlearns @redstormpride @scarbmslibrary

Happy bday A.A. Milne! Today we read Finding Winnie to learn the true story behind Winnie the Pooh, took quizzes to find out which Winnie the Pooh character represents us best, and had a sing-a-long to finish the day. #nevertooold #RedStormPride #redstormlearns @ScarbMESchools

Today was "design day" in the @scarbmslibrary Makerspace. Students made origami bookmarks and learned sewing basics to prepare for next week's mitten making session. #redstormpride #redstormlearns #makerspace
