With the Elm Creek Teammates being part of the READ Grant for Teammates, we get special perks. We have 5 5th graders who get participate in this program. With the help of the Elm Creek Coordinator, Kathy Long, and teachers Kenneth Weber and Jadyn Ehresman, we were able to get Nebraska Astronaut, Clayton Anderson come to speak about himself and one of the books he wrote- So You Want To Be An Astronaut.
The 4th, 5th, and 6th graders enjoyed his visit.
Thank you Teammates

Another Teammates giving in the books. We served pizza and then the kiddos got to decorate a cookie. It was shared with some of the Mentors and the Mentees.
The kiddos may have had sugar overload.
This makes my heart ( Kathy Long) filled with overload of Joy.
Thank you Elm Creek Public School for letting us use the food room and thank you to the Teammates board Members for helping get this activity in the books.
