Winter Authors' Celebration

Today we invited parents in to celebrate the stories that the students published in the fall.   We started with some Christmas poems that the students have been practicing and really enjoy reading.  Then each student had the chance to read his or her story in front of our audience and into a microphone.  It is always very exciting for the students to use the microphone.  Afterwards the class had the chance to read favorite Christmas stories with their families.  Thanks to all who joined us today.  It is very special to the students to share their work and accomplishments with their family.  Merry Christmas!
