Global Play Day #3 in the books! Circuit boards, origami, and bracelet-making seemed to be popular in room 201. However, my personal favorite was the singing of Hamilton soundtrack! Shout out to Lily and Olivia for knowing ALL the words. Impressive and downright adorable!

The stockings were hung by the marker board with care...

Nothing makes me happier than when a class catches the reading bug. Give them time to read and great things happen!

@LieslShurtliff Every year. Every time. Kids love your book! They giggle, they gasp, they beg to read longer! ❤️

No internet, no problem! We took a break to learn about dinosaurs and their amazing jumping ability! 🦖🌵

It’s official! Snickers won a close, hard-fought battle (88-86). This campaign manager is going on a well-deserved vacation. I’ll be back on Monday! I leave Mike and Ike in charge. 😉 #candy2020

@CrossCounty1 Umm, did you forget THE big election on Tuesday? Mike and Ike v. Snickers!

[Grade 5 Cross County @cccgrade5]

Ended our campaign late this afternoon with a debate. Chocolate party candidate, Miss Snickers, was quite convincing. Will it be enough to sway voters? #candy2020

[Grade 5 Cross County @cccgrade5]

Early polls show a dead heat. Interviewed 10 random voters and it was 5 and 5. Too close to call at this time. All votes will be critical! #candy2020

@cindy_nyberg I think you may be raising a future political strategist! 🙌

[Grade 5 Cross County @cccgrade5]

Tempers flared today near campaign headquarters. Chocolate Party signs were spotted on Chewy Party members’ turf. A violent protest seemed inevitable, but thankfully peace won out. Only a few papers were hurt and a few glares exchanged. #candy2020

Some early criticizing of the Chocolate Party leads Chewy Party Chair to step in to promote an honest and kind campaign. Student replies, “so, no politics then?”

We are in an epic election battle! Will it be the Chewy or Chocolate Party who come out on top next Tuesday? Stay tuned for breaking news, updates and expert analysis. #candy2020

Cousins Lily and Olivia took these beautiful nature photos for our theme of "looking at nature in a new way" on our CC campus. I remember another family member who could whip up some amazing art as well... Aunt Stephanie!
