Let's Recycle

Today we had a special visitor, Kathy Russell, who came to visit our class to talk about recycling. Kathy Russell is the education consultant at TFC Recycling and came to share what can be recycled at school with her dog Taylor who wore a vest of items that are able to be recycled. Many students said they do not have a recycle bin at home. If you live in a single family home (not an apartment or condo), please call the city to request a recycling bin. Thanks!

Fun Math Books

In the past few weeks we have studied estimating, map skills, and probability. The kiddos love these three books by Loreen Leedy that address these skills.

Science Lab!

Today we had our science lab on water. Many thanks to our parent volunteers doing all the science experiment stations for us.
