Did you hear? The 8th graders are engaged in a service learning project. The 8th graders are writing and illustrating their very own children’s book. When the project started some 8th were not very intrigued. The project was for elementary kids to learn social skills.

The idea’s differ through out the students. Some of the books are about hygiene, some about super heroes, others are about safety. I was looking around at some books and the looked very cool.

All of the 8th graders are working on this but Mr. Miller’s first period class has the privilege to go over to Huntington Elementary and read their stories to first graders. I interview Jacy Chittenden and asked her how she felt the first graders would react to the books. She said “I think that they will be excited to see older kids and for them to be read to.”

I also got some information that the students at Huntington will look up to us for coming. I also think that some of the 8th grade alums are pretty psyched to see their old teachers.
