Loveland Living Planet Aquarium came to visit our second grade students. They brought 3 different animals from the rainforest and taught about their habitat. They met Carmel the Crested Gecko, Biru the Blue Tongued Skink, and and Creedence the Blood Python.
Ms. Liechty’s and Sra. Diaz’s Blue Class earned Whiskers this week. They had 100% of their students dress up as old folks or in school colors. Way to go!
Mrs. Crook’s class wrote and performed skits to teach each other about Feudalism during the Middle Ages.
Ms. Harrison's second grade class and Sra. Flores's sixth Grade Dual Immersion Classes took their "100 year old" photo and wrote about being 100. It was a lot of fun!
The Kindness Squad decided a great way to spread kindness is to welcome new students to our wonderful school. They put together welcome bags for each of them. Then went to each of their classrooms, they called the new student up to the front of the classroom, presented them with their welcome bag and then asked the class to help them give the new student a round of applause. The Kindness Squad had so much fun welcoming the new students and seeing each of them happy for the kind welcome.
We celebrated the 100th day of school today by dressing like a 100 year old. Some of our remote second graders even participated! Here are a few photos of our day.
Discovery Gateway came to do a Reaction Time with our fifth graders. They learned about science and did some chemical reaction experiments.
