This is the fourth and final installment of the adventures of Bi, the little polar bear from the Arctic who came to visit his friend Klondike during an especially cold winter in Ada.
Today, Bi finds King-Horn/Sports Center on campus and is amazed at all the polar bears he found there.
Yes, the athletic complex has roaring, mean-looking bears, then there are some not so scary. He cuddles up to a coed on the bleachers, even finds a polar bear face made of tile on one of the walls.
Ada school language arts teacher, Erica Shadley was recognized by State of Ohio Superintendent of Schools, Paolo DeMaria, for an instructional unit centered on the book, Wonder, by R.J. Palacio.
Recently made into a movie, Wonder tells the story of Augie Pullman, and centers on themes of kindness and acceptance.
State Superintendent DeMaria purchased a grade level set of the sequel, Auggie and Me, in recognition of Shadley’s unit, in which students focused on kindness. (See photo attached)
