4th Grade Field Trip to Science City

Ms. Brandt's second grade worked in cooperative groups to create visual and oral presentations about the solar system.  Students used internet web sites, Brain Pop videos, print resources, and a National Geographic video as resources to gather fascinating information about our universe.  They also learned skills to work collaboratively in a group

Our third graders would like to announce the arrival of three baby chicks! What a great real world learning experience.

MAP testing is underway! Please encourage your children to do their best. We had an assembly last week to share these test taking strategies: take your time, read every choice, put forth effort, eat a nutritious breakfast, get plenty of sleep, use scratch paper, and be confident in your abilities!
The kids had a blast as teachers acted out a skit written by our very own, Mrs. Parn. She also incorporated two inspirational videos from other schools who take the MAP. 4th graders, Ethan and Chris, were fantastic students traveling along the test taking trail to success. Bravo!!
