We are Thankful for many things


We wrote on strips of paper things we are thankful for. 
We connected them and made pumpkins!
They turned out pretty cute!
The students were so proud of their work!

WebQuest Success

Your students had a lot of fun going through the webquest and taking notes about what they were learning. You should have them tell you what they learned!

Fun for attendance and behavior. We had first quarter rewards for today as a school to celebrate those who did not have any major behaviors and who had only missed one day of school or had been tardy only one time or less. The kids drew with sidewalk chalk outside and then they played volleyball with balloons and flyswatters

Pet Monster Mayhem

We had an enormous amount of fun during our Halloween celebration as we created pet monsters. The students had to make a monster that was 10 cubes wide and 10 cubes tall. They gave the monster a name filled in details about their monster and then transferred their writing to a story page.


Living vs Nonliving



The students had a marvelous time investigating earth worms and gummy worms. Yes some were grossed out, but all survived. All students were given individual gummy worms to compare to a living earthworm. The worms had a lot of fun slithering all around the desks, plates and gummies.
