Team Holtrup is preparing to code their Plant Monitoring System using Binary code to create symbols. Tell me that’s not future ready.
First Graders had an "in school" STEAM field trip today with High Touch High Tech. Students learned about photosynthesis and germination while getting a hands-on look at shoots, roots and the inside of plants! We did experiments and planted our own wildflowers to take home! 🌱🪴
Second Graders in Team Holtrup came to visit last week to introduce to us their "Kindness Challenge." There are yellow signs around the school and each one has something to complete. Team Beseth was so excited to accept their challenge and have already started! #bekind #kindness
Our Kindergarteners had fun celebrating Earth Day today! ❤️🌍
Team Staiton enjoyed a freeze dance jam session today from Jack's dad! We love inviting families into our classroom on Fridays to celebrate our star student of the week! 🌟🎸
We had a special visit from Shirin Shamsi, author of "Zahra's Blessing: A Ramadan Story", and several other wonderful children's books! Thank you to Ms. Hendron for seeking out amazing opportunities for our lions to continue building a culture of diversity and inclusion! ☪️
Our Kindergartners are having fun getting their hands dirty and learning about the lifecycle of a plant! We're excited to make and share our daily observations of our radish and marigold seeds and watch the progress up close! 🪴
Word families in action! We love incorporating movement into our phonemic awareness lessons to get our bodies and brains active! We practice isolating the beginning, middle, and ending sounds in a word as we jump through each hoop!
Second graders have been comparing the story elements of fractured fairy tales. This week, we explored different versions of Cinderella!
