Thanks to Ms. Childress for organizing purple ribbon day the past two days. 💜 Military students were encouraged to come add their names to a ribbon and then tie it to the Military Kids Purple Ribbon Tree.

Fifth graders enjoyed their day at Penderlea Farms for Agriculture Day! Students were introduced to many different topics and hands-on activities. From master gardeners to farming drones and goats, they had an opportunity to learn about the farming community and get a firsthand glimpse into the world of farming and agriculture. 👩‍🌾🚜

Ms. DeCicco's 2nd graders rolled question dice (Who, What, Where, When, Why, How) as they read — turning every page into a mini inquiry lesson. Great way to build comprehension and curiosity! 📚🎲

Ms. Gruber & Ms. Stewart's 3rd graders also had some fun by having a Math March Madness competition to review math concepts with a heavy focus on fractions. The kids worked as a team to solve problems, shoot hoops for extra points, and a halftime treat. Fun learning all day and a great way to close out March.
