Annyeonghaseyo (hello)! 👋 7th Grade kids tried out Korea's well-loved ramyeon noodles and spicy kimchi. Yum! This activity was part of their lesson in Asian geography with a glimpse of Asian food and culture. Kamsahamnida (thank you) 9th Grade for assisting in preparing the food! You rock! 🤘

Reading in the dark?! First grade did just that! They grabbed a pillow and blanket, some good books, and a flashlight and got to reading!

Pre-K had a little extra energy to burn and it was too windy to go outside, so we brought the movement and fun indoors!!

6th Grade students finishing up a STEM challenge- Ancient Mesopotamia Cuneiform Coding

Today we had Dr. DeCoteau in our school. She spent time with administration and then ended the day with a whole staff professional development.

🌊🚢 Sailing Into Problem-Solving! 🚢🌊 Today, students took on the challenge of designing and building aluminum foil boats! 🛠️✨ After carefully crafting their vessels, we set them afloat and tested their strength by adding pennies as weight. 💰💪 It was amazing to watch them brainstorm, collaborate, and adapt their designs as they worked to keep their boats afloat for as long as possible. 🧠⚓ Who knew so much STEM learning could happen with a few sheets of paper, some water, and a whole lot of creativity? 💡📐 #STEMInAction #HandsOnLearning #FutureEngineers #ProblemSolversInTheMaking #TeacherLife
