Ms. Schorp loves to read Charlotte's Web because it's a classic that stands the test of time, and it teaches important lessons of empathy and unwavering friendship. What's a classic that you love to read? #HanoverReads
Mrs. Ordoñez and her daughters love this series. The Cool Bean Makes a Splash shows how cool it is to be nice to others. Her favorite part is listening to her daughter read. Have your kids been reading to you this summer? #HanoverReads
Stop by the building to look at some blooms, so pretty! Have a little bit of weeding to do when the temperature cools off a bit...
Ms. Rosone enjoyed reading the book Brave with her niece recently. It was a great read, focusing on the message of independence. What good books have you read so far this summer? We'd love to see. Tag us in your post. #HanoverReads
Has anyone read a good picture book lately? Mrs. Foley just read A Superhero Like Me. This book was given to students who attended newcomer camp. It's about the "super powers" that different careers have. Tag us in a post of your recent good reads. #HanoverReads

Mr. V finished his second book this summer. This book was a very interesting biography that had a blend of poetry along with information about an author as well as some connections to history that impacted the writer. A pretty unique story.
Seeds and a few plants are in at the Hanover Highlands raised bed gardens... replanted for peanut plants along with some onions, zucchini, seeds, watermelon seeds, and a couple of other items. There are fruit on the trees. If you're in the area, feel free to grab the watering can and visit the Rain barrel to keep the plants and seeds going!
Yesterday, we celebrated two paraprofessionals, Ms. Talla and Ms. Debbie on their retirement with a luncheon! They will be missed but their impact on our school will never leave. thank you for all your hard work and dedication over the years.
Though our days are nearly over, and a lot of the content is quickly coming to a close... there was still yet a lot of learning and fun to be added at Hanover! A combination of field trips and countdown themes and friendship was found in an outside the halls of the building.... enjoy your summer once it starts folks!
Fifth graders learned about Earth's systems with a heavy focus on the hydrosphere... and then were lucky enough to take a trip to the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry to experience the Blue Paradox!
Our 5th graders had a great time learning and exploring at the Museum of Science & Industry today! #engageembraceempower #museumofscienceandindustry
Our 4th graders did an amazing job with their Wax Museum today! They researched, wrote, and memorized…then did a great job presenting to the 3rd graders today. Way to go! #engageembraceempower #waxmuseum
