Partner reading is a great way to improve reading fluency! Each time our students are able to read aloud to someone, they improve their reading. Ask your child to read aloud to you tonight and see how much they have improved from the beginning of the school year.

Mrs. Jansen's third graders shared their extreme weather research projects with Mrs. Ney's first grade class. This was a great opportunity for our students to share their research with others and for the younger students to learn more about extreme weather.
Great job third grade!

2nd graders are working on their throwing accuracy in PE with a game called, Monster Ball.
On the command students attempt to throw the small balls at the Monster Ball in order to make it move. Their goal is to try and get the Monster ball to cross the line on the opposing team’s side of the line. If the Monster Ball rolls outside of the designated area – the opposing team’s side will receive one point.
Our students have had such a fun time working on their throwing skills with this upbeat and intense game!
