Meet the Author

Today we had a very special treat, we were able to meet the author of a fantastic book series called Commander Josh

 Author Donna LeBlanc came to our school to read to the students and do some imagination activities because that's what  her books are all about; exploring the imagination of kids! We were even fortunate enough that Miss Donna gave each classroom a signed copy of her book Commander Josh In Space and each student was able to take home a Commander Josh bookmark.

Miss Donna, seen below with our Thank You card, didn't think we would know who she was and was very surprised when Henrik told her she was the author and the title of the book was Commander Josh. We've got some smart kids in this class!

Miss Donna did a rhyming activity with the students, something she also does within her books. "Today I see, through the leaves of the tree, a tiny little bumble bee, coming to... my house!" The kids quickly told her that didn't rhyme and we all figured out the ending, coming to see me.

We had fun using our imagination to build a snowman with Miss Donna and catch snow on our tongues.


A BIG thank you to Donna LeBlanc for taking the time to come see us and giving us a great book to read!
