Creative Writing:
Students enjoy decorating their composition book covers and contemplating the weekly writing prompts, designed by Mrs. Jaggi, which build an ongoing adventure story. Each week students use their imaginations to write a page and then share with the class by reading aloud at the podium (only if they choose to.) Younger students may dictate what they want to say; an assistant will write out their words to copy.
