Our art teacher, Mrs. Black, has put together an amazing snowglobe photo opportunity for families. A couple of students tested it out after school yesterday.

This week we have two classrooms to highlight for Wow Wednesday! Students in classrooms 202 and 204 took part in a science experiment that went along with their Matter unit. Students had to use their sense of touch to figure out some properties of different objects and make predictions before knowing what was in the Mystery Boxes. Check out a few pictures from 202!
