Today, We Remember...


As a tribute to the memory of 9/11, students in Room 210 read the book, The Man Who Walked Between The Towers by Mordicai Gerstein. Students reflected on the amazing and remarkable feat of the man, Philippe Petit who's life long dream was to tightrope walk between the 'Two Towers'. Kids vividly described the traits and virtues of the main character in this story; something that Philippe thought, said, felt and did. Our class was able to identify the traits and give evidence from the text. Next, they used this skill independently while reading their own independent reading book.

We honor the memory of all those affected and touched by 9/11 and that fateful day - Mrs. Hatlestad & the Students of Room 210
