Happy Halloween from EPS! To celebrate, check out this project done by Mrs. Weaver’s 3rd grade class at Cross Timbers. The class did a writing project where the students picked a vocabulary word and thought of a character that would go along with it! They wrote persuasive essays to describe how the character was like the vocabulary word using examples from the movie, book or show their character is from. Then, they painted those characters on pumpkins! Very creative, well done students! 🎃🖌 #EPSleads
