Over the course of three days, November 16 – 18, I got to visit with all the K – 3 classes at the Pulaski School # 8 in Passaic, NJ.  What a warm welcome I got from all the kids and teachers!  And what fun we had!  Here is a special shout out and thanks to Lauren Ralicki, who is the school’s literacy teacher, for bringing me to her school.  I was so impressed with all the bright, eager learners at your school.  So, to all my new friends, here is a great big hello.  Remember to use alliteration in your next writing assignment, and if you’re looking for something fun to do…shout the word zucchini and think of me.  When you get a moment, check out some of the poems you wrote at Poem of the Day!  They are wonderful, and will be a great reminder of the time we spent together. Here are a few of the pictures we took together.  ENJOY!
