My Awesome Team


I forgot to include a picture of the hard workers behind the big Candy House Day! :)

Candy House Day!

Oh my goodness the kids had so much fun! I was extremely tired after the day was done but getting to work with 110+ students will do that to you! We really enjoyed going to each room to make a different craft and I think it will be a lasting memory for many! Thank you so those of you who came to make gingerbread houses with your child! :)

Students working on lightbulb necklaces.

Everday Math Games



The students had a fun time playing different games from around the world. They had the chance to play Tug of War(using counters and dice--not rope and mud :)). Students also had the chance to play Nine Holes which is a game from England. Owari was a tough game for us because the directions weren't too clear but kids had fun anyway! Their favorite game was Tug of War. Here are some pictures of the students playing...enjoy.

Pocket Problems







Jill Bartello, our Math Coach, was here to talk about more and less. She dropped objects into a "pocket" and kids had to mentally count how many objects she put in. We also got into addition! She asked questions like "If we put 1 more in, how many would we have now?" They did an awesome job! :)

Turkey Talk


Nathan was here from the DNR to teach us about turkeys. We learned that a boy turkey is called a tom and a girl is called a hen. We also learned that they have beards!
