In second grade, we have been studying changes in the Earth, and recently we explored earthquakes! Students built mini houses and tested them on shaking “ground” made of jello. Such a fun way to see science in action! 🌎

Students were able to observe, participate in hands-on activities, and engage in discussions with professionals working in therapy-related careers. Thank you to The Pediatric Place for providing such a valuable experience for our students!

🎉🐯 80 Days Smarter in 4th Grade! 🎉🐯
Our 4th Graders in Mrs. Schreck and Mrs. Underwood's classes had an absolute blast celebrating the 80th Day of School, and wow—was the learning BIG! They traveled through the entire decade and learned about some TOTALLY RAD inventions and made some sweet discoveries!

In ELA, students put their thinking caps on as they practiced key strategies like compare & contrast, restating their opinions with evidence, and exploring cause and effect through engaging activities like making their own comic strips, creating their own comic book characters, and designing their own slap bracelets. Their critical thinking and brainstorming skills were on full display! 🧠✨

In Math, we traveled through time! ⏰ Students worked with fractions, decimals, graphing, and even compared prices of items from the 1980s to today, sparking great conversations about change, value, and real-world math connections. 💰📊

In Science, our young scientists explored the engineering and design process by observing Pop Rocks 💥. Using what they already knew, students predicted, tested, and compared which liquid would create the greatest reaction, learning firsthand how curiosity and experimentation drive discovery. 🔬🧪

It wouldn't have been a true 80s day without Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and some pizza! In the TMNT world, pizza isn’t just food—it’s a lifestyle. From late-night sewer hangs to saving the city slice by slice, the turtles taught us that heroes run on teamwork, brotherhood… and LOTS of pizza.- Shoutout to Green Ridge Casey's pizza for tossing up some delicious pizza for our kiddos, they sure enjoyed it!

What an exciting, hands-on way to celebrate 80 amazing days of learning, growing, and thinking like true scholars! We’re so proud of our 4th graders! 💛💜🐯🎉
