Well, it took a long time, but the first grade class finally finished their project for first term. It's a book: a very impressive book. I think in the 15 years that I've been teaching, I've never had a project turn out so well. The students put SO much effort into their project. I'm really, really proud of them.
Here's a look at the cover:

And even though my students will kill me, here's one of the pictures they drew for the book.
The book has 14 chapters, and is 12 pages long, not including the wonderful illustrations at the end. I asked the students what they want to do for their next project, and they said they want to do a newsletter! They are already deciding what columns to put into the newsletter and talking about who's going to do what!
They've really done a fantastic job on this project, and it's something I plan to keep forever!
