Treasured People: Our Grandparents and Special Friends

What a treasured treat it was this week to host 
our grandparents and special friends. 

To show them around our classroom, we had a cryptic scavenger hunt with the hints written in Viking runes. The final prize? A treasure box full of treasures! Perfect for our concept of the year,
TREASURE

We then had the opportunity to take them around the school and show them all the wonderful things we treasure at Seabury--our library, our French room, our playground, our MakerSpace, our multi-purpose room, our computer lab and more. 

Be sure to check our blog throughout the year as we study world explorers, the American Colonial Era,  Native Americans, zoology, geology, botany, environmentalism and ecology, all through the lens of the treasure concept. We'll be asking:
  • what do people treasure?
  • why people treasure some things and not others?
  • what makes something a treasure?
  • how do we treat treasures?

Thank you for joining us for the afternoon and making each of us feel most treasured!!
