✨ How do we inspire the next generation of creators? ✨ Community Elementary had the wonderful opportunity to welcome author Laura Joy Pewitt to our school! She shared her books Elsie Saves the Day and Wally the Wayward Sea Turtle while giving students a behind-the-scenes look at her creative journey. 📚🐢 Her visit highlighted the power of storytelling and encouraged our students to dream big and see themselves as future authors and creators. We are so grateful for this inspiring experience! 💜 #AuthorVisit #Literacy #Education

🦖✨ Dino-mite Learning in Pre-K! ✨🦕

Our Pre-K classrooms have been ROARING with excitement as our little learners dove into the world of dinosaurs! 🦕💚

From reading fun and engaging dinosaur stories to creating their very own prehistoric crafts, our students have been busy exploring like real paleontologists! They made incredible “fossils,” built adorable noodle dinosaurs, and used their imaginations during adventure play to stomp, roar, and discover just like dinosaurs did long ago! 🦴🌋

Through hands-on learning, creativity, and play, our Pre-K kiddos are building important skills while having a dino-sized amount of fun! 🦖🎨📚

We are so proud of our curious learners and all the excitement they bring to the classroom each day! 💜💛 #VikingVoyage #PreKFun #DinoDiscovery

📚✨ Stitching Encouragement into Every Page! ✨📚

The Shelbyville branch of the Embroidery Guild of America (EGA) recently shared their talents in a meaningful way with handstitched bookmarks for reading interventionists to use as rewards for #students reading progress. 🧵❤️

Founded in 1958 to foster the art of needlework and related arts, EGA continues to make a positive impact in our community. EGA member and #BedfordCountySchools ESL & Instructional Support Coordinator, Kathy Reed, visited #CartwrightElementarySchool, #CommunityElementarySchool, #EakinElementarySchool, #EastSideElementarySchool and #LearningWayElementarySchool to deliver these special bookmarks, which are already inspiring students to keep turning pages and reaching new goals! 🌟

#ThankYou to the Shelbyville EGA for supporting literacy and encouraging a love of reading, one stitch at a time! 📖🪡
