6th graders share picture books with YES students

Meghan Haugevik shared the information below about an interesting visit to YES:

On Monday, June 15, the sixth graders walked down to YES to share picturebooks that they wrote and illustrated in language arts class.  Students focused their writing around a central theme or moral, realistic characters and conflicts, and aimed for writing that demonstrated scenes.  The sixth graders visited second grade classrooms and were paired up with a second grade student.  Both the sixth graders and second graders had a lot of fun, and the sixth graders were excited to share their work (both written and illustrated) with an age-appropriate audience!
