It was such a pleasure to welcome author @LeticiaOrdazTV to Lady Bird today as she shared her book The Power of a Sister Circle / El Poder del Circulo de Hermanas! Our sixth grade girls discussed lifting one another up, building community, and using their voices with courage.

From spooky stories to sinking boats, the second six weeks had it all—Sora Hispanic Heritage Month reads, mystery passages, The Outsiders prep, library clubs, and I even got to support a Lord of the Flies STEM boat building challenge!

Synthesis essays are complete. We read “My Favorite Chaperone” and “The Outsiders” and wrote about how both protagonists show struggles with identity and belonging. Kids had to have evidence from both texts to support their ideas.
