"Beautiful OOPS" and "Mistakes That Worked"

Mrs. Smielewski welcomed her 2017/18 fourth grade class with an important lesson: MISTAKES ARE OK! Some mistakes are even FANTASTIC! The students enjoyed a book by Charlotte Foltz Jones "Mistakes That Worked," along with a book by Barney Salzberg "Beautiful OOPS." Both books invite readers to learn about perspective and see the opportunities in the "oops" moments of every day life.
