Enrichment Timeline

Pancakes & Poetry: Hold 2 meetings at each grade level at each
school from 7:30-8:15.
Submit the dates to Cathi Krick, Food Service Coordinator, who
lets the cooks know that kids will be coming for breakfast on these
days.
Typically Ive had pancakes and poetry on Tuesday a.m. but that is
a delivery day for the kitchens and so theyd prefer to have the day
switched in the future.
Follow lesson plans for poetry writing sessions.
The second session ends in computer lab time where students
type and insert picture for poem.
Email these to yourself and compile.
Carol Swanson and Jorge Guiral have been willing to handle the
HT sessions in the past and I have done SH and PB.
This runs weekly throughout most of the school year.
