We find Mr. Anderson and the third and fourth graders learning about a composer of the month. This month, students are learning about Stevie Nicks. Throughout the month, our students will be able to learn the type of music she played, what kind of music she writes, and will be able to listen to some of her records.

Next week, Emerson Elementary will be celebrating Read Across America Week! We encourage our student and staff to participate in these fun "themed" dress-up days. Each daily theme is based on one of this year's Golden Sower Nominees. The dress-up themes are as follows: Monday- Witches and Wizards Day, Tuesday- Superhero Day, Wednesday- Safety Equipment Day, Thursday- Role Reversal Day, and Friday- NO SCHOOL!
Please remember if you are participating in these dress-up days all items and outfits need to be school appropriate. Also, we will have P.E., and most likely outside recess, so please make sure you dress accordingly.
Pictures will be posted throughout the week featuring the day's "best dressed."

Whether she's checking out library books to students, leading WIN groups, or teaching keyboarding to our 2nd-4th graders, she always does it with a smile.
