Mrs. Chandler's PreK class participated in an apple tasting activity. First, the students practiced identifying and naming different colored apples. Then they tasted the apples and practiced answering "yes/no" questions by stating whether or not they liked the apples. 🍏🍎

Good Afternoon Sea Turtles,
Due to high water on Sloop Point Road, buses that travel that route will be taking an alternate road. This may affect stop times by a few minutes.

Thanks to everyone who wore green this week to support Mental Health Awareness. We learned how important it is to listen when talking to our friends. Being supportive of others makes our tough times easier. 💚

🎃 Ms. Lagnese and Ms. Stewart’s 4th graders had a spooktacular time reviewing for their science quiz on animal communication with a Halloween-themed Kahoot! 👻🧪 It was a sweet treat full of learning and fun! 🍬💡

Students in Ms. Mizell's 4th grade math class are exploring concepts of area and perimeter by designing dog pens, and creating restaurant seating plans for a floor layout based upon the story Spaghetti and Meatballs For All. 🍝

Sharing the love of reading! 💗📖Hannah from 5th grade came to read to all the students in her little sister, Madison's 1st Grade class. The students really enjoyed the story "Creepy Pair of Underwear."

We're happy to share with you that Mae from Mr. Notaro's 5th grade class is our Sea Turtle of the Week. Mae, your school is proud of you. 💙🐢💚

This week we're supporting #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek by wearing green and learning techniques we can use to pick ourselves up when we're having a bad day.

Mrs. Holmes’ 3rd graders traced their shadows the other day to help them understand and learn about the sun’s daily pattern. 🌞

Ms. Polster is busy in music class this week! ♫ 3rd grader students are using Garage Band as they begin to explore & create electronic music. While 2nd grade is working on solfege & hand bells. Solfege is a musical method using syllables like "do, re, mi" to teach children to sing in tune, understand musical patterns, and learn to read music by connecting sounds to notes. 🔗https://youtu.be/Ic1rs0jBl0A

Ever wonder what happens to library books when they're no longer able to remain in circulation? The pages of loved characters get turned into buttons, that way we can take these great stories with us wherever we go. 😊📚
