Marble Challenge
Students worked in cooperative groups to design a structure for a marble to roll. They worked hard to create, test, improved before sharing with their classmates. After they reflected on the process in their Science Journals. We are a group of thoughtful and creative scientists!
Yoga Fridays
Fridays are our day of learning new Yoga poses. We use these throughout the week to help us when we need to energize, focus, be strong and confident, relax or be calm.
Read and Relax
Friday was our first of our monthly Read and Relax. To relax we enjoyed a snack and read picture books with a partner. It was a big hit with the students.
