2nd grade students practiced their spelling words using ghost writing this week 👻
Take a peek at some of the behind the scenes prep work that went into making our Fall Festival a success! 4th grade was tasked with baking mini loaves of pumpkin, zucchini, Apple cinnamon and cinnamon swirl bread for the bake sale. Once they had their recipes they spent some time practicing measuring wet and dry ingredients with sand and our water tables. They practiced each amount included in their recipes. This was a great hands on way to practice working with fractions!
After practicing their recipes and measurements it was time for the real thing!! 8 groups of 3 or 4 4th graders worked on double batches of four different recipes! There was a lot going on in the kitchen, but 4th grade did a fantastic job and their bread was a hit at the Fall Festival!
1st grade used their lumanaries to read tricky words in the gym today!
3rd grade is hard at work learning about measuring area in math. Partners are able to discuss problem solving ideas together.
1st grade has been learning about the body and how to stay healthy. We did a germ activity to show the importance of washing with soap and water. The glitter represented their germs and they didn't come off with only water!
1st grade earned a PBIS reward and had ice cream yesterday!
