Our Scottish pen pals’ reports, and Rory’s World

Hey Library Kids and Mrs. Lane,

I wanted to show you our friends in Scotland’s blog, and a newspaper report they posted on it:

If you want to talk to them, click on the link to their report and write them back, tell them what we think of their blog or report, and tell them how to link to your Rory’s World work.

Some of their students just left us comments on our 5th Grade blog, also…

Our Visit With Elizabeth Uhlig

uhlig-martinez-zohorasamiha.jpgToday the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students had a visit from author, illustrator, and publisher, Elizabeth Uhlig.  Ms. Uhlig shared her artwork and her books with us.  She told us the stories behind her books.  We learned that she, like our students, has a writer’s notebook, that she carries with her wherever she goes!  Her notebook contains ideas and sketches that she later uses in her writing.  I hope that everyone enjoyed this visit as much as I did!     -Ms. Lane!
