In TK we read the book Cactus Hotel. We learned about the Saguaro cactus and the many animals that live in and around the cactus. The kids each made their own cactus hotel, and we used their hotels for addition problems.

7th graders are learning about gravitational potential energy in science. We got to go to the lower gym and explore the rebound of different objects and calculate the amount of potential energy each has.

Lunch Guest for Star of the Week.

The TK class went to Parkview in RB to spend some time with the residents today. I was so proud of these kids because right away they introduced themselves to the residents and then asked the residents their names. They did an awesome job on the activity, and the residents seemed to enjoy watching and interacting with them.
