Congratulations to Ms. Stewart's class! They are the recent A*T*T*E*N*D*A*N*C*E winners for having 100% attendance in class and spelling out the word! The class will receive a special treat and they are already working on spelling it again. (This reward is unlimited for classes.) #LearningIsBetterWhenWeAreTogether
Sometimes our Eagle of the Week tasks for K - 5th doesn't match the skills our PK students are learning. But, our PK students are learning a lot and working hard so on those weeks, they get their own recognition.
Ms. Stewart's 3rd grade class decided it was a very nice day to have math class outside! #LearningIsBetterOutsideInFreshAir

February 10th-14th Weekly Attendance Update
Part 2 of "Reptile Day" for 1st grade ... was Mrs. Havens sharing her daughter's axolotl. Our little Eagles love axolotls (thanks Minecraft!). Thanks to Ms. Tabitha and Mrs. Havens for sharing their "pets" ... This was a great way for students to make a real life connection to their Wit & Wisdom module in real life! #LearningIsBetterWhenOurTeachersShareTheirPets
Last week, 1st grade had a "Reptile Day" as part of their Wit & Wisdom studies. 1st grade is learning about "creature features" and all the different features animals have. At the Eagles Nest, our own Ms. Tabitha shared her 2 corn snakes and a bearded dragon with the classes! (Stay tune for part 2 of this post...). #LearningIsBetterWhenWeAreTogether #DoYouHaveReptileDayatWork
