We ROCK!

Our class studied ROCKS! 


We've learned all about Metamorphic, Sedimentary and Igneous rocks.  Learning how each tyope of  rock was formed and how there are minerals in our rocks, were super cool!

Halloween

Always a spooky good time at school, the kids dressup for Halloween and celebrate with each other by "Trunk or Treating" and staying DRUG FREE!
 Our costumes were very creative!
 Some of our costumes were scary too!
 We had fun dressing up!
 Our volunteers helped us play fun games!  We WRAPPED mummies!

 We even played "PIN the MOUTH" to the Jack o Lantern!
 
What great fun!

2012 Class

Welcome Back!  This year is going to be a GOLD MEDAL performance.  Our class is ready to face the challenges and come out winners! 

Here are photos from our 1st Field Trip of the Year.  We visited the Ellsworth County Historical Museum and learned about things from the Olden Days; including a 1 room school house, a general store and the old caboose.  It was great!







What a great trip for us to compare how life is NOW from life BACK THEN!
