After completing the core book Number the Stars in Mrs. Agostino's and Ms. Marion's classes, Emery Loiselle came to school to talk about his role in the service during WWII. The students had an opportunity to ask questions and learn about life in the 1940's.  We are grateful he took the time to share his life experiences with our students.

Grade 3 also had a special visitor this week.  "Helen Keller's" life was depicted on stage and the third graders relived her experiences and learned firsthand about the daily challenges she faced!

                 








                           ~Mrs. Casey's Class earned Kindness Awards~

I am so proud of Mrs. Casey's 4th grade class that made the extra effort to go above and beyond this week to demonstrate 

acts of kindness toward others and acknowledge others around them for being kind.  What a great way to celebrate our SOAR motto at Francis Wyman!

Lego Batman – Burlington AMC Movie Tickets

$12.00 – $15.00

View Trailer on YouTube – https://youtu.be/Omq74wC1erg

In the irreverent spirit of fun that made "The LEGO® Movie" a worldwide phenomenon, the self-described leading man of that ensemble - LEGO Batman - stars in his own big-screen adventure. But there are big changes brewing in Gotham, and if he wants to save the city from The Joker's hostile takeover, Batman may have to drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten up.
