Welcome To Our Page

We have been studying structures in Science. The class was given the simple task of creating a structure that would stand by itself, using only the materials they were given. Each group was given 100 straws, two blocks of modeling clay, and one meter of tape. The groups worked well together and had made some interesting discoveries on day one of this project. See the image gallery below to see how they made out!

Buddy Writing

Every Friday afternoon, we meet with our kindergarten buddy class. We usually spend out time reading to our buddies, but last week we decided to spice it up a bit. We decided to do some writing with our buddies. We created some really cute Christmas stories! Check out the image gallery below to see us hard at work.

Alexis was kind enough to bring in her pottery maker and demonstrate for the class. Each student got the chance to give it a try and see how it feels to work with real clay. Check out the pictures below!
