This is not really a fall book, but we have been reading personal narratives for book reports. Montezuma 4th graders read “Thunder Cake” this afternoon. The book is a narrative about a little girl that is afraid of storms so her grandma has her make a cake to keep her mind off of the storm as it approaches. After reading and discussing the story, we joined Mrs. Z in her classroom and made thunder cake with a few of her students. There was a recipe at the end of the story that called for puréed tomatoes (interesting ingredient for sure). Everyone tried the cake, not everyone liked the cake. We decided you can’t really taste the tomatoes, but there was a little different taste to the cake. Thank you Mrs. Cassandra Zweygardt and class!
South Gray Junior High and Copeland Elementary hosted their Thankful Teacher Turkey Fundraiser! Students purchased feathers for the teacher they wanted to win! Coach Carey was the winner with over 300 feathers and had to wear a Turkey Suit all day today!!! He was a great sport and the kids loved it!!!
It's poinsettias time! Contact a SGHS Cheerleader to order.

South Gray Junior High 7th graders traveled to Greensburg today to participate in the League Big Read activity. Students watched Remember the Titans due to its theme on the American Experience, played a Magic Carpet ice breaker game, participated in an Escape Room based on the movie and worked with other league school students to create a Venn Diagram contrasting the movie to novels they are reading in class.
