First Annual Author's Celebration

A few months have past since school began, and the students all have multiple projects that showcase their hard work and creativity across all subject areas.  Sometimes things get so hectic here at school that unless we have a publishing party with the parents or share our work with another class we forget how much fun it is to just share with each other.  And so our First Annual Author's Celebration was born!

Each of the students selected one project they were most proud of to showcase during the celebration.  The students broke up into small groups and rotated throughout the classroom visiting their peers works stations where they watched movies, read stories together, asked questions about each other's work, talked about why they were proud of their projects, etc.  I think the pictures are proof of how much fun it was and why it's important to slow down and smell the roses so to speak!
