🔎🦴 Young Paleontologists at Work! 🦴🔎
Some scientists in Mrs. Kitchen's class took a closer look at the past as they examined different types of fossils and specimens! With careful observations, lots of curiosity, and plenty of questions, our Panthers studied the evidence up close and thought about what it can teach us about living things from long ago.
There’s nothing quite like getting an up-close look to turn learning into discovery! ❤️🐾

Learning math is hands-on and so much fun! Today, students in Mrs. Maulding's class used colorful counting blocks to construct their very own "neighborhoods." Each building was designed to represent numbers in different, creative ways while practicing foundational math concepts.




Learning Volume Through Play!
Mathematicians in Mr. Allre'ds class put their math skills—and their creativity—to work by creating their own games about volume! Then came the best part: getting to play the games their classmates designed!
Students practiced important volume concepts while problem-solving, collaborating, and learning from one another. When students become the game designers AND the players, learning takes on a whole new dimension!
