Look at our 2nd graders tackling Thinking Task! They’re learning all about AM and PM while building their very own clocks to show time in 5-minute and 1-minute increments. Such a fun and interactive way to master time-telling skills! Keep it up, kiddos!

Our 5th-grade music students took on the challenge of playing both drums and barred instruments! The tricky part? Each instrument had a different part, so students had to stay focused and not get distracted by their neighbors. A great lesson in teamwork and concentration!
