Sunshine means reading and working outside to enjoy the nice weather. Mrs. Page's first graders are definitely having a good time.

WIN time is an excellent opportunity for enrichment activities, reviewing known skills, and practicing what we are learning in class. In third grade, students practiced rounding numbers to the nearest tens and hundreds using a clothesline method for their math exercises.

Nurse Bree is teaching a lesson on germs and handwashing today. She brought in a super cool germ kit that simulated how to detect germs on your hand using power and a black light. The light showed the "germs" that she spread from her hands onto the kids, whom she had high-fived. Then the students compared germ residue on hands after a light hand wash, medium hand wash, and a really deep hand wash. What a fantastic lesson!
