Mrs. Magee and Ms. Porier's kindergarten class STEAM Friday. Challenge was to see how many bears they could save from the lava? Students had to use their creative thinking to construct forts to save the bears. Students were even more challenged when half of their supplies were taken to see if they could still save as many bears as they did at first. Then they finally enjoyed eating their own gummy bears!

Mrs. Carr's 3rd Grade Literacy class went outside and enjoyed the nice relaxing weather while listening to a read aloud . This was a reward for over half of the class scoring high on their test on Friday. The students were really engaged and were able to focus and answer questions. They were so excited they wanted Mrs. Carr to continue to read. Reading outside is something we will hopefully get to enjoy before the winter months. Reading outside helps reduce stress and improves your mood. Thanks to Mrs. Carr for the picture and sharing her story!
