We had a great week of school It flew by so quickly. We had a wonderful guest reader today. Mrs. Diane Foxx my mother in law came to read to the students today. She read Patricia Polacco's The Bee Tree. The students really enjoyed buzzing through the story. Diane brought them each a book with a sweet quote inside each one. She also provided all the tennis balls for out classroom as well! I look forward tasting the edibe cells tommorow. Yummy!
"Grampa took Mary Ellen inside away from the crowd. "Now, child, I am going to show you what my father showed me, and his father before," he said quietly. He spooned the honey onto the cover of one of her books. "Taste," he said, almost in a whisper. . . . "There is such sweetness inside of that book too!" he said thoughtfully. "Such things...adventure, knowledge and wisdom. But these things do not come easily. You have to pursue them. Just like we ran after the bees to find their tree, so you must also chase these things through the pages of a book! "
