The third, fourth and fifth grade classes at PBE worked on a great project before the winter break! They turned the upstairs hallway of their school into a winter wonderland!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Using the book “Snowmen at Night” as their inspiration, the students recreated the pages of the book, which detail what snowmen do when the sun goes down and kids are asleep. They drink ice cold cocoa, take part in snowman races, throw snowballs, sled and even play baseball!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The students worked diligently building their scenes. They created snowmen in many different forms doing all the things illustrated in the book.

 

 

 

 

When all was done, classes from pre-K through grade 2 visited. The older students took them on a walk through this wonderful book!

 

 

 

It was amazing for those who brought the story to life and exciting for the younger students who got to enjoy this terrific story. Have a look at the video of the wonderful story, Snowmen at Night, as told by the students of PBE.

 

 

 

Last year, the district invited guest readers from throughout the district to read some of their favorite winter and holiday books. We videoed the readings and posted on our website. They were a hit! Former Assistant Superintendent for Instruction Donna Geidel read “Snowmen at Night.” Click here to watch and listen to her reading.
