Team Epic starts DBE Reader Recs

Thanks to Ms. O and Team Epic, DBE Library users now have access to student recommendation presentations via the DBE Library’s blog.  Taking knowledge gained from working with Keynote in the library, some intros to Infographics students independently built Recommendation Presentations.

Take a moment to see what the 4th and 5th grade students of Team Epic have enjoyed and recommend.

Daryl McDonald – Nelson Treehouse and Supply

treehouse1As a culminating event for our Trees and Treehouse unit, we were fortunate enough to have Daryl McDonald, From Nelson Treehouse and Supply, come talk with us about trees and treehouse design and build.

For a FULL 60 minutes our 1/2/3, 2/3, 2, and 3/4 classes sat and listened in wonder as Mr. McDonald shared stories, images and tools of the trade with our students.  He even allowed for almost 20 minutes of questions!  Student treehouse designs will remain in their Field Journals, in the library, until the end of the year but will eventually all go home in June.  Of course if you’d like to stop by and see your student’s design, feel free to pop into the library before or after school on Tuesday, Thursday or Friday!

Thank you to Daryl McDonald for coming to talk with our very eager bees!
