This week in the spotlight is Catherine Stier



In honor of President's Day I thought we would talk about what it would be like if they were president.
We learned lots of fun facts!  Did you know the white house has over 100 rooms?  We discussed how important the job as president would be.  Ask your child what they learned.

This week we spotlight Mary Pope Osborne's "Magic Tree House" series

We explored the website at www.magictreehouse.com
The students had a great time exploring the website and seeing Mary Pope Osborne on video!

We learned where we can find out about each book and read a sample as well.
They REALLY loved playing the mission game together!  Please check out the website!
