Mrs. Gaul's class is learning about shadows in their classroom, so the group took advantage of the sunny day to get outside and examine their dark outlines on the parking lot pavement.

Mr. Traugh gave gold coins for the book vending machine to each teacher to distribute to deserving students. These three young men earned their coin by being responsible in Art class, working together as a group, communicating with each other, and cleaning up their workspace. Great job boys!

Mrs. Madden's class filled their classroom Kindness Tree by including another student in their puppet show! Way to go girls! Students were then able to put a big leaf on our elementary school's Kindness Tree sponsored by SCA C.A.R.E.S. Each leaf on the large tree represents a dollar towards a charity. This year's charity of choice was chosen by Mrs. Singley, with the funds going to St. Jude Children's Hospital at the end of the school year. Keep up the kindness G.C Hartman!

Kindergarten and 1st Grade Art students created this winter display with Mrs. Brown in Art class. Kindergartners cut shapes free-hand for their snowy houses and created patterns using color. First graders perfected their clay spheres and compared sizes while they explored the element of form. Students challenged themselves by cutting felt for the scarf, and they designed their snowmanβs hat by mixing colors. Igloos were created using recycled clay buckets by a group of First Grade boys during their recess time!

Students in Ms. Habowski's 2nd Grade class celebrated the 100th day of school with a 100 Hershey Kiss Hunt around the classroom. Students found Hershey Kisses that were hidden around the room. Students then placed the Hershey Kisses on a 100 chart and practiced counting to 100. This activity was also supervised by Ms. Habowski's student teacher, Mr. Merkle.
