Room 3 was full of excitement during Miss Teachout’s solo week, which soared with a fun Redhawks theme! Each day, the students learned through books, slideshow presentations, crafts, and movement activities all about the Red Hawk - our new school mascot. Miss Teachout planned special activities like reading informational texts about redhawks, making redhawk headbands, flying paper airplanes imitating how redhawks fly, and reviewing the basic needs of a redhawk while participating in movement activities. The children loved showing their school spirit and exploring the world of birds in a way that made learning feel like play. It was a special week that ended with a visit from our very own Groton Redhawk mascot!

Children's Collaborative Poetry Workshop: 3rd - 6th Graders - May 10 / 2:00 to 3:15pm
Tompkins County Public Library, Borg Warner Room, 101 E. Green Street
REGISTRATION: Just one form for any or all May 7-11 live events (All events are free.)
with Aidan Cobb. This workshop empowers students to explore the connections between poetry, visual art, and self-expression in a fun, hands-on, and interactive way. Designed for third through sixth graders, it introduces poetry through engaging activities that inspire creativity. Children will participate in student-led discussions on poems, exploring figurative language and poetic devices. They will also make connections between poetry and visual art while creating their own poetry and artwork. As a final collaborative project, each child will contribute a poetic line—whether a metaphor, simile, or phrase—on a leaf-shaped cutout. These leaves will be added to a collective Poetry Tree, forming a shared piece of artistic expression.
