Try to find Mr. Rich sitting still, you will have a VERY hard time. He is constantly on the move looking for ways to make our school as clean as possible. Not only is our school more clean thanks to his efforts, but he also sets a great example of work ethic and taking care of the things we are trusted with.

After reading The Very Busy Spider, Ms. Meadows and Ms. Bryant's PreK class drew a bug using the characteristics of an insect and measured how many cubes tall their bug is. As a whole group they made a huge spider web using yarn and worked together as a team to build it strong enough for the plastic spider. 🕷

In Wit & Wisdom, 2nd grade is learning about the digestive system, so today Mrs. Allen’s class simulated digestion in a plastic bag. They made mucus to protect the “stomach” then added food (bread) and some “gastric juices” (orange juice, lemonade, or cola) and squeezed the bag to represent the contractions of the stomach muscles until the bread was mashed into chyme. Gross science for the win!

Mrs. Pleasant's PreK students worked on a science experiment with skittles and water today. They created a pattern with the skittles and then made predictions on what would happen if they added warm water to the plate. Great work, scientists!
