We flew kites for a few minutes before a thunder storm started! ⛈ #MaroonPride @CESMaroons The wind was perfect; we have never seen all of our kites get so high before!

It’s Kite Flying Day! @CESMaroons @MissKenclass #Maroonpride #cesmaroons

Our class is learning how to make different foods by ourselves! Ants on a log was a hit! We have also made omelets in a mug, puppy chow, rice Krispy treats, and pizza in a mug. #maroonpride @CESMaroons #cesmaroons #lifeskills #classroomcooking

Our class had an awesome time at the Peoria Zoo yesterday! #maroonpride @CESMaroons #cesmaroons

[Mrs. Benner @MrsBennClass]

We learned how to make some treats today. Our test was making an entire batch of Rice Krispy Treats without any help! Mrs. Benner just watched and took pictures 😬 #MaroonPride @CESMaroons #classroomcooking #lifeskills

Chief Lowers came to pick up some goodies we made and letters we wrote to say “Thank you” for Police Week! We learned how to make puppy chow! #MaroonPride @CESMaroons #policeweek #CPD #ClintonPoliceDepartment 👮🏻‍♂️👮🏻‍♀️💙🖤

We presented our 5th grade DARE projects today! #CESMaroons @CESMaroons #MaroonPride

[Mrs. Benner @MrsBennClass]

We made cereal treats with Rice Krispies and Peeps cereal last week. There was lots of measuring and reading involved. We also washed and ate some strawberries, but that wasn’t exciting enough for a picture! We donated leftovers to police officers. #MaroonPride @CESMaroons

[Mrs.Youngberg’sClass @Mrs_Ys_class]

We made agamographs to celebrate Earth Day! #CESMaroons #MaroonPride

[Mrs. Benner @MrsBennClass]

@Mrs_Ys_class came by this afternoon, and we made our own chia pets! Both of our classes learned about plants today just in time for Earth Day. We can’t wait for our grass seeds to grow so we can give our “pets” haircuts! #MaroonPride #CESMaroons @CESMaroons

[Mrs. Benner @MrsBennClass]

We showed how much we learned about the parts of a plant by making flower posters with lots of different materials including sunflower seeds! #MaroonPride #CESMaroons @CESMaroons
