Ingredients for a picture-perfect Lower School Field Day: plentiful sunshine, water balloons, stilts, a limbo pole — and energetic students, teachers and parent volunteers! Thanks to everyone who helped make it such a wonderful morning!

#tbt to when these friends were in 2nd grade! I got to spend time with these #BeachBuddies in study hall today. As we said, “Once a Beach Buddy, always a Beach Buddy!” 🏖💗 #timeflies

The #BeachBuddies visualized “tops and bottoms” of their cubes as they continued to explore cube nets today. Great thinking! 🤔💭📦

[The Beach at DA @TheBeachDA]

@MichelleERosen I hope they are ALL nets! 😂 Their exit ticket was to make a net.

[The Beach at DA @TheBeachDA]

Net or not? The #BeachBuddies looked at ways squared can be “folded” to make a cube. 📦 #exploring #math #geometry

Hopefully the #BeachBuddies completed the mission this weekend and delivered/sent their amazing, heartfelt opinion letters to a “motherly figure” in their lives! They had strong opinions and backed their claims with convincing evidence. 📝💐💗#genuinewriting #meaningful #opinion

[The Beach at DA @TheBeachDA]

Sorry folks! This is all the #BeachBuddies can share today! We had some strong opinions during Writers’ Workshop today! Stay tuned for the reveal of what those #opinions were!! 📝 #writing

Passed out new Book Club books to the #BeachBuddies. The looks of excitement and wonder were priceless! 😍📚
