We walked in to 4th grade to see Ms. Taber’s class learning all about lines of symmetry in Math.
This is not an easy concept, but her students were nailing it and ready to show their classmates what they had learned by determining if each letter could be split in half & match up perfectly - with lines of symmetry. 🦓❤️🙌🏽
Great work 4th grade & awesome lesson Ms. Taber!

This year, both 1st & 2nd place designs will be available to order (details coming soon) These two winning designs will become our Westside school shirt design. We are so proud of your hard work & creativity! Please help us celebrate our winners!
