Create a headquarters for homework Hello, Friend! Last time, I told you about curing The Morning Frenzy. How are you doing with that? This time, I wanted to tell you about something called Homework Headquarters. Homework Headquarters is that place in your house where you always do your homework. You and the adult who helps you at homework time will have to decide together which place is best, but here are some ideas about not-so-good places and better places. Places where it is hard to concentrate and homework does not often get finished are not good spots to pick. These places include a room where the TV is on, a room with electronic devices that can distract you, or simply lying on your bed in your bedroom. Better places include a place where you have a flat surface to work and where the lighting is good. It’s also a good idea to put some pencils and notebook paper in that area so you have some supplies.
Now let’s get ready to use our Homework Headquarters. Your first mission will be to prepare your equipment. Here’s how: 1. Take a folder – it can be any kind of folder that you like or any color, but it must have pockets on the inside – and make a label for the pockets. You can use a permanent marker like a Sharpie or two white sticker labels. You could even use just two strips of masking tape. Make one label that says “Take home!” and put it on the pocket on the left side of the folder. Make another label that says “Take to school!” and put it on the pocket on the right side. Now take your equipment (your folder) to school and collect your nightly missions (homework). 2. When you get homework of any kind, put it in the pocket on the left side, the “Take home!” side. It doesn’t matter if it is a paper that needs a family member’s signature, a list of math problems or some science that you need to study for a test. It all goes on the left side of
the folder. 3. Before you leave school, look at all the things on the “Take home!” side of the folder and decide if you need to take any books with you. If you are going to need a book, grab it and put it with your homework folder in your backpack. Remember to take your “nightly missions” (homework) to Homework Headquarters. 4. When you get home, have a quick snack and get to work on your homework. Do it right after school so that you don’t forget and so that you don’t have to suffer through an evening of Homework Headaches! 5. Pull out your folder and the books you need. Stack them on the table. Then take one of the easier (but not the easiest!) pages from the left side. Do the work and check it to make sure it is all correct. Fix any problems you find or silly mistakes you might have made. Then put it on back into the folder on the right side, ready to “Take to school!”
6. Next take one of the harder homework pages and work it the same way: Work. Check. Fix. Then, pop it back into the folder on the “take to school!” side. 7. Keep working on the harder pages until you have them all done and in the right side of the folder by following the same process: Work. Check. Fix. Put into folder. 8. Finish up by by working on the easiest page of homework you have left as a reward 9. When everything is done, checked and back in the right side
of the folder, you might want to take it to an adult at home review your work. Tell them how you got your homework done and then ask if you can go have some fun! But before you run to have fun, put that backpack . . . on . . . your . . . Yep! That’s right!! On your Launch Pad. Tonight’s mission is accomplished and now you’re ready for tomorrow. - Rene Shelton is the elementary counseling coordinator for Denton ISD. She can be reached at rshelton@dentonisd.org.

Denton ISD Update
Spreading the joy of reading
Photo courtesy of Nichole Leiser
Paloma Creek Elementary third-grader Rian Leiser loves reading – she loves it so much, in fact, that she has more than 3,000 books in her garage that she wants to share with others. Rian’s stockpile of books sits in her garage to regularly replenish her Little Free Library, a wooden structure a bit larger than an average birdhouse that contains books for children to read and bring back. To create the miniature library, Rian worked with her father for the construction and elicited donations from local businesses and community members. “I really love reading a lot, and I want everyone to love it as much as I do,” Rian said. “I found one book I love a lot [‘The Giving Tree’] and just wanted to keep reading and get others reading, too.” When Rian started her service project – something she wants to do annually each summer – she just knew she wanted to spread her joy of reading. Last year, she started her first service project by obtaining school supplies for children who couldn’t afford them, so she decided to continue the theme of giving by raising funds at a local Applebee’s to purchase books
for others. After thinking of ways to reach other students until June, Rian came up with the idea of making a miniature library for others to use, and her mini library opened on Aug. 7 with the help of her family and the support of the community. “Since we’re in a special utility district, we don’t have a public library nearby – we have to go to Aubrey or Frisco,” said Nichole Leiser, Rian’s mother. “She realized this was an opportunity for our community, so my husband built it and Rian got all the books. Now that it’s done, Rian goes out and sees what books are being taken from the Little Free Library more than others and sees when she can rotate in new books.” Rian said she wasn’t even aware of Little Free Library, a nonprofit corporation that helps support miniature libraries, when she started her project. Now, however, Rian said she’s already thinking of ways to reach more people, saying her family “has so much wood left over that I’d like to do another library near here.” Paloma Creek Elementary staff helped Rian achieve her goal by donating books the school no longer uses; Rian’s mother said the staff have been “very supportive and really
active” in helping her amass her book collection. Several classes also donated their own books to the Little Free Library, and teachers said they couldn’t be more proud of her desire to help others. “For a young girl to understand the importance of serving others and to incorporate such a vital part of one’s education is remarkable,” said Andy Kane, Rian’s third-grade teacher at Paloma Creek Elementary. “Rian’s heart for others is unchallenged, and I am so excited to see where her service-oriented heart will lead her smiling face each day.” As for the best advice Rian can give to those learning to read, she offers a simple tip: Regardless of where you get your book, just start reading and go from there. “You should just check out a book at the nearest library and give it a shot,” she said. “You may like reading just because of that book, like how ‘The Giving Tree’ made me love reading.” Rian’s Little Free Library has more than 300 books out in the community, and she’s constantly checking to see when it needs to be restocked. To visit her library, go to cul-de-sac near the playground of Paloma Creek Park in the northern half of the community.
Notas sobre su zona escolar
Difundiendo la alegría de lectura
Photo courtesy of Nichole Leiser
El estudiante de tercer grado Rian Leiser de la Primaria Paloma Creek adora la lectura – la adora tanto, de hecho, que tiene más de 3,000 libros en su garage que quiere compartir con otros. Las reservas de libros de Rian se encuentran en su garage para abastecer regularmente su Pequeña Biblioteca Gratis, una estructura de madera un poco más grande que una pajarera de tamaño mediano que contiene libros para niños para leer y devolver. Para crear la biblioteca en miniatura, Rian trabajó con su padre en la construcción y obtuvo donaciones de empresas locales y los miembros de la comunidad. “Adoro realmente el leer mucho, y deseo que a todos les guste tanto como a mi,” dijo Rian. “Encontré un libro que adoro mucho [‘El Árbol Dadivoso] y sólo quería mantenerme leyéndolo y conseguir que otros lo leyeran, también”. Cuando Rian comenzó su proyecto de servicio – algo que ella quiere hacer anualmente cada verano – solo sabía que quería esparcir su alegría de lectura. El año pasado, ella comenzó su primer proyecto de servicio obteniendo suministros de escuela para niños que no los podrían comprar, así que decidió continuar el tema de dar levantando fondos en el Applebee’s local para comprar libros para otros.
Después de pensar en maneras de alcanzar a otros hasta junio, a Rian se le ocurrió la idea de hacer una biblioteca miniatura para que otros la utilicen, y su biblioteca mini se abrió el 7 de agosto con la ayuda de su familia y el apoyo de la comunidad. “Desde que nosotros estamos en un distrito versátil especial, nosotros no tenemos una biblioteca pública cercana – tenemos que ir a Aubrey o Frisco,” dijo Nichole Leiser, la madre de Rian. “Se dio cuenta de que esta era una oportunidad para nuestra comunidad, así que mi marido la construyó y Rian consiguió todos los libros. Ahora que está hecha, Rian sale y ve qué libros son tomados de la Pequeña Biblioteca Gratis más que otros y ve cuando puede rotar nuevos libros en ella”. Rian dijo que ella ni sabía de la Pequeña Biblioteca Gratis, una corporación no lucrativa que ayuda a apoyar las bibliotecas miniaturas, cuando comenzó su proyecto. Ahora sin embargo Rian dijo que ella ya piensa en maneras de alcanzar a más personas, diciendo su familia “tiene tanta madera de sobra que quería hacer otra biblioteca por aquí cerca”. El personal de la Primaria Paloma Creek ayudó a Rian lograr su objetivo donando libros que la escuela ya no usa; la madre de Rian dijo que el personal ha sido “de mucho apoyo y realmente activo” en ayudarla acumular su colección de
libros. Varias clases también donaron sus propios libros a la Pequeña Biblioteca Gratis, y los profesores dijeron que no podrían estar más orgullosos de su deseo de ayudar a los demás. “Para una joven chica el comprender la importancia de servir a otros y para integrar una parte tan esencial de una educación propia, es notable,” dijo Andy Kane, maestro de tercer-grado de Rian en la Primaria Paloma Creek. “El corazón de Rian para otros es indiscutido, y yo estoy tan emocionado en ver a donde su corazón orientado-al servicio dirigirá su cara sonriente cada día”. En cuanto al mejor consejo Rian puede dar a esos que están aprendiendo a leer, ella ofrece una simple sugerencia: Independientemente de donde obtiene su libro, solo empiece a leer y siga de allí. “Usted debe solo sacar un libro de la biblioteca más cercana y darle una oportunidad”, dijo ella. “Puede que desee leer simplemente por ese libro, como “El árbol Dadivoso” me hizo a mi amar la lectura.” La Biblioteca Pequeña Gratis de Rian tiene más de 300 libros fuera en la comunidad, y ella constantemente está viendo cuando es necesario abastecerla. Para ir a visitar a su biblioteca, vaya a la calle sin salida ceca del patio de recreo de Paloma Creek Park en la mitad norte de la comunidad.

Adkins students use recycled materials for art projects When a new school opens, it brings along hundreds of boxes full of new equipment for students and teachers. But what happens to those boxes and packing materials when everything is in place? At Adkins Elementary, they become pieces of art. Adkins art teacher Kelley McGee challenged her third-, fourth- and fifth-grade students to use boxes, packing material and other previously used items in art projects the first few weeks of school. Students then designed model replicas of food, a house, a vehicle or a musical instrument from materials that were either donated or came from the school, Mrs. McGee said. “District art teachers researched ways we can use makerspaces – community spaces that emphasize collaboration and provide materials and tools for creation – in our curriculum,” she said. “It’s normally for science and technology, but we wanted to integrate it into art.” Students in Mrs. McGee’s class said the project taught them about how almost anything can become art and that creativity isn’t limited by materials. “I never really knew I was creative before doing this project,” said third-grader Christopher Suarez. “I used things like
paper and cotton balls to create my project – I never thought about using them in that way before.” Fellow third-graders Joaquin Nevearez, Grace Coleman, Maddox Nguyen and Hank McClarty agreed with Christopher, saying they all tried to create their projects from
materials they otherwise probably wouldn’t have considered using. The students said they tried to make their projects based on either things in their life or things they really like. Christopher made his model of chips and salsa because they reminded him of his family’s restaurant, for instance, and Hank made a flying car simply because it seemed cool, he said. Even more important than what they created, however, was how they created their projects. All five said creating their projects with new materials wouldn’t have been the same. “I just enjoyed making things out of all the leftover stuff we had,” Joaquin said. Going forward in the school year, Mrs. McGee said she plans to find other ways to ignite creativity in her students using anything and everything available at Adkins. “We’re going to continue using resources that come straight from the school,” she said. “We’re using a lot of leftover boxes and things along those lines from the cafeteria that would otherwise go to the trash – it’s a good way to be efficient, and it really teaches students art can be made out of anything.”
