The second graders read "The Stranger and the Soup" this week and had so much fun making their own stone soup!











Yesterday, students participated in a pep rally to get hyped up for all of the Snowball activities that will take place this Friday. The Snowball court will be presented between the JV and Varsity games; and the dance will take place right after the games from 9:00 to 11:00 pm. We are expecting a big crowd to cheer on the teams, support the court, and join in the dance to make awesome memories!!!

Here's another one of my CABIN crew who's trekked out on this chilly night in search of knowledge & earning booty!Hunter's mom even told me he said "this was scary but he was kinda brave!!" Way to go, Hunter! Your bravery on this excursion will result in treasure tomorrow!❤️💰💙


This week one of our vocabulary words is cabin. Many of my kinders said they've never seen a cabin before so I told my kiddos that I'd pay them $3.00 if they swung by the DeGraff Park and sent me a pic of them standing infront on the cabin there. Easy 💰 & making connections.


Here's another PIRATE braving this cold weather to collect some treasure & gain knowledge! This cabin may have been moved from the old school farm but it continues to be a gem for our students!!! I bet these kiddos will visualize the cabin when asked about it on their test!❤️💰💙
