Students and their families enjoyed a pizza supper, book fair, and time in their classroom with their teacher. I was able to snap a few photos of a few GATE kids with their families. Enjoy!

AES Celebrates Grandparents Day!
Third grade AES students celebrated Grandparents' Day at our annual GRAND Open House Tuesday night. The evening started with the 3rd grade winners of the Grandparents' Day Essay contest. Each of the students did an excellent job saluting their grandparents. All the 3rd graders sang a song to honor these heroes.
Students and their families enjoyed a pizza supper, book fair, and time in their classroom with their teacher. I was able to snap a few photos of a few GATE kids with their families. Enjoy!

Torn Paper Self-Portraits
The hallway outside my room looks great decorated with torn paper self-portraits created by GATE 3rd graders! I love the way each child's personality comes out in each portrait! Students selected colors of paper as well as paint for handprints for these works of art. Torn paper works great because there is NO PERFECT way to tear paper....so no pressure to be "perfect" with this form of art!
I love these portraits! They make me happy! After they have been displayed for all to see at AES, we will send them home for you all to keep and enjoy!
The following is a short slideshow of pictures of the students creating these masterpieces! Enjoy!
