Student's in Mrs. Westcott's class participated in activities based on the reading module they just finished about the figurative and literal heart. Students played operations, drew a figurative and literal heart, labeled the parts of the heart, created a science experiment about the circulatory system, wrote poetry, and notes to people they were thankful for. The DE morning show even recorded the students talking about the activities for a future morning show.
