Our library transformed into a math lab! First graders read "Round is a Tortilla", then became shape detectives! Working in teams to find shapes hidden in plain sight. They celebrated every discovery and the excitement was priceless!๐ @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam

Our fourth graders read Big and had a powerful discussion about how words make us feel. They wrote beautiful pieces describing the good things that make them who they are. It was a wonderful way to practice kindness and self-love! ๐ @CasaViewES @DISD_Libraries @baverticalteam
