Pre-K & PPCD/TWC Using the iPads

Our youngest students had so much fun using the iPads for the first time today. I used the Scribble My Story app to create a book of the well known poem "Five Little Pumpkins." After reading it together, students created their own pumpkin pages.

Book Fair

We just wrapped a wonderful Book Fair week. Thank you to all of the parents, students, and teachers who bought books this week. The money we raised will help buy books for our library and pay for author visits this year. Below are the winners of our raffle, congratulations!

1st Grade Building the Tallest Towers

First graders had fun this week in the library with the challenge of "Who can build the tallest tower?" After students built a tower, they were supposed to discuss with their team what changes they were going to make to so their next tower would be even better. Below is a Pic Collage of some of the tallest towers we saw!
