I am so proud to present the work of Marvin, one of my very, very favorite 4th graders. He has read every single Diary of a Wimpy Kid from front to back (multiple times), he loves Daniel Boom, Origami Yoda and Lunch Lady. The influence of these books is apparent in his work. You have to know Marvin as well as I do to know why this work is spectacular, beautiful and inspirational. Please enjoy his work! (click on a page to view them all enlarged!)

After we read the book, we did a little craft project. We each traced our hand on construction paper and cut them out. Then we folded the fingers down so the hand was making the sign for "I love you". We attached a heart with a love note, to be delivered to someone special this afternoon.

When I told Camden that the book would soon be a movie, his eyes almost popped out of his head! I've invited him to write a review for the blog... watch for it!

Yoda seems to be taking over our school lately! May be we will change our mascot from the Lemme Leopards to the LemmeYodas... has a good ring to it, yes? With kids still reeling after our Skype with Mr. Angleberger and so many kids reading the book and Mrs. Hall using it as an oral lit choice... everyone is in on the action!
Usually I get upset when I find "non-educational" materials printed, but Master Yoda must have put some sort of calm over me. |
Aidan is in 1st grade and well on his way to becoming an origami master! |
Will can't be stopped. He is now inventing his own characters, like this Sith |
And he has invented an origami speech bubble! |

I am so lucky to be in a profession where I can make a difference in the life of a child. I get bogged down with the chaos of it all sometimes, the paperwork, the overhead light bulbs and jammed printers...the behind the scenes things get in the way too often. So, today, I got a love note that snapped me back into reality. I walked into my office and found this. It's a good day to be a librarian! Thank you, Amelia. : )

Today during Kindergarten, we read the book Nacho & Lolita by Pam Munoz Ryan. This is a love story about Nacho, a rare but beautiful bird and Lolita, a small swallow. Nacho meets Lolita when she migrates to the town he is currently living in. He is by himself most of the time, as he is one of a kind and he is too big to fly very far. He is thrilled when he sees new birds arriving. Nacho's heart is warmed by Lolita and he spends the summer helping her build a nest and raising her chicks. When summer ends, Lolita must travel to South America with her flock, leaving Nacho behind. He tries to convince her to stay, but she tells him that it is too cold during the winter, and now she may never return since the river in the town is drying up. Nacho tries to follow the swallows, but falls into the ocean and has to stay behind. He finds that if he plucks his beautiful feathers and plants them in the ground, flowers, trees and even a river appears. The town is beautiful and full of life as he awaits Lolita's return... will she return? Ask your Kindergartener! (Would I read a tragic love story on Valentine's Day??)

Wow - Marvin is an amazing cartoonist. When will we get to see more of his hilarious comix?
What a guy! Wimpy Kid and the Origami Yoda books are huge hits at my house, too.
Thanks for sharing! These are incredible!
