Miss Bormann's second-grade class is hard at work this afternoon with their Math stations! Some groups worked on addition and subtraction to create pictures, another group focused on telling time and reading clocks. Meanwhile, other groups tackled counting money using menus and flashcards. We love seeing all the different ways our second graders are learning and mastering various skills!

Start your day with the amazing little learners in Mrs. Dodd's Begindergarten class! Today, these BK students delved into what March has in store: friends' birthdays, the arrival of spring, St. Patrick's Day, Spring Break, and Daylight Saving Time. But their exploration didn't stop there! They also pondered whether the calendar's days revealed a pattern involving Hats and Eggs. Using their observation skills, they determined that they hadn't filled out enough days to identify a pattern just yet. However, they recognized the pattern on their school day number line, and today's day (128) called for Blue! Thanks, BK, for giving us a glimpse into your morning routine!
This morning, GBR started their day with an assembly where we discussed this month's Energy Bus theme, 'Drive with Purpose.' To drive with purpose, you have to remember your positive vision. It's important to stay on target with positivity and be aware of Energy Vampires. Keep driving your bus with purpose, GBR!

Miss Puetz's 5th Grade Class just wrapped up their Civil War unit in the most engaging way! Today, they had a special guest, Principal Mr. Gubbrud, diving deep into the complexities of this pivotal period in history. From probing questions about strategies to discussions on the socio-political landscape, these young historians explored it all! And guess what? They even got to hear Mr. Gubbrud's insights on some of the fascinating topics they covered during their Civil War journey. It's incredible to witness such curiosity and eagerness to learn! Hats off to Miss Puetz and her amazing students for their dedication to understanding our past. Let's keep the spirit of inquiry alive!
Mrs. Duffy's fifth-grade crew is diving deep into the world of zoos! They're on a mission to craft opinion pieces about whether zoos are heroes or villains for our furry and feathery friends. Before they embarked on their writing adventure, they brainstormed the perks of zoos - like lending a helping paw to injured animals. But hey, they're also not turning a blind eye to the downsides: cramped quarters and the wild ride of animals ending up in circuses. Get ready to be blown away by the roaring opinions and wild perspectives these fifth-graders bring to the table!
