Mr. Rollins had students in Earth Science and Physical Science completing a LAB assignment.
Mr. Taylor's 6th graders have been studying ancient Egypt. Recently, students made their own hieroglyphics to display in the hallway. Today, Mr. Taylor began his lesson with a discussion about goods that were traded in ancient times including incense and frankincense. He shared some lotion to give students an idea of what type of fragrance ancient Egyptians used. They loved it!
After Mrs. Harrison’s math lesson about ratios, she leveled up the engagement with Blooket, an Ed Tech platform, where she chose a couple of games to review skills. Students created an anonymous game name & competed against their classmates with leaderboards. High school helpers also competed against the class along with Mrs. Harrison herself! It was fantastic! Loved hearing Mrs. Harrison challenging students: “Dog2, I’m coming for ya!” :))) The students were ALL IN!!!
Ms. Schmidli had an engaging lesson on the importance of writing specific, clear directions when creating a "how to" writing. She had students write directions to make a stick person. Then, she tried to follow their directions! The results were humorous, but she made her point! One student had FABULOUS directions! He earned a prize!
1st grade had a visit from two members of the American Legion. These special guests shared their love of our country, provided historical information, taught our students proper flag etiquette, and even left flags for each student to take home! Thank you for spending time with our students, and thank you for your service!❤️🇺🇸
Mrs. Miller's 7th graders surprised her with an early birthday party today! One of the girls made a special red velvet cake, and another girl made cupcakes for the class.
"I might have had watery eyes for a few minutes. I am so blessed to be in these children's lives."----Mrs. Miller

Mrs. Hammers passed out mirrors to elementary classrooms today to support phonological awareness activities. Mrs. Lamar's students were using their mirrors to help them see their mouth position in order to correctly pronounce letter sounds.
