Kindergarteners created magnifying lenses in STEAM lab so they could look for signs of spring. Hopefully they start seeing some soon! 🤞🏻








Forehead Facts has become a class favorite math game. Two players place a card on their forehead without looking at it. A third player acts as the referee and adds the numbers together. The players with the cards on their forehead use their opponent's card and the sum to determine their own number. This game can also be played at home.💙💛

As part of our goal to improve attendance, we implemented our "Awesome Attendance" campaign in March. We are proud to announce that over 120 students missed 1 day or less last month. These students received a certificate to take home, a magnet on their locker, and a fuzzy bee as a way to say 'Thank You for Bee-ing" at school. They will get to celebrate on Friday with some extra minutes of recess, too! We can't wait to celebrate with even more Junior Jackets in May and June!
