Bookmans School Challenge

School Challenge

Today I found an interesting opportunity for Walker while exploring Twitter. Bookmans has always supported schools and children who love to read. The contest boasts a 15,000 dollar first prize to one Arizona school. I asked students today what they think that they could do with that much money...What an interesting topic of conversation, what do we think that Walker Elementary school needs the most? Is it technology related? Or perhaps something for the playground, some think that it is time for an overhaul. I am curious to know what my parents think about the opportunity to be given 15,000 dollars. I am just one small part of the inner workings that makes our school community functional. There are dozens and dozens of staff, parents, and students that makes our school so special. How could we put this money to good use?!

Summer Time Blues

The summer is fast approaching and we are all excited for some time off, even Mr. M. What are your plans for the summer? More importantly, what are you going to do this summer to keep from being bored?

Help give Mr. M some ideas to keep him busy, entertained, and learning. What books do you plan on reading this summer? Give me some suggestions 4th graders!
