Reading: 15 minutes of reading on either Raz-Kids or Reading Eggs or read your favorite book and send a picture of you reading it.

Writing Response: What can you learn by just looking at the pictures in the book? What can you learn by just reading the words in the book? Choose 1 book-either a book you have at home or on Raz-Kids. Before reading take a picture walk, write what you can learn about the story just by looking at the pictures. Then read the book. Did you learn more? Did the pictures leave something out? Write what you noticed. Use the link below if you would like to record your answers.

STEM Certification- Great News

Dear Addison Elementary Parents and Guardians,
It is with great excitement that I am letting you know that Addison Elementary is officially Cobb STEM Certified! Today the STEM committee from the county came and walked our school to see all our students in their classrooms, and in Art, PE and Music and the Learning Commons participating in STEM activities that integrated Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. The committee was amazed by our students and their ability to demonstrate the 4 C’s of collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creativity. Students were engaged, working together and learning so much from the challenges that were put before them. We are so proud of all the hard work and determination demonstrated by our students and our staff. This has been a three-year journey and it is exciting to say we are a Cobb STEM Certified School.
Susan Hallmark
Principal
Addison Elementary School
