The Kindergarteners earned a whopping $900 to spend on new toys by doing jobs at home and in their neighborhoods. They had a great time shopping at Target this morning for toys to donate to Toys for Tots.

Kindergarteners "saved the earth" using math! Wearing special capes with their superhero name ("Recycle Man"), how they help save the Earth (recycling), and 2 things they recycle (cans and boxes), students zoomed around the classroom solving math problems to defeat villains.

6th graders decided it is time to add strawberries, lettuce, peppers, kale, basil, and flowers to their hydroponic system. Students are planting seeds & established plants and determining how to run fertilizer through the system. They are taking risks and adjusting where needed!

6th graders are learning about animal adaptations. In one activity, they made "wings" and practiced hovering like a hummingbird. In another activity, they learned about the importance of opposable thumbs. Everyday tasks take longer and are WAY harder without opposable thumbs!

7th graders are putting together a new computer using parts from the school's old laptops. Says Mrs. Martin, "This was fully their idea and they are running the show - exactly how science class should be!"
