Sixth graders put their knowledge about Newton’s Laws of Motion to use! They designed and built cars powered by a balloon. Our goal was for the car to travel at least 3 feet. Many achieved that goal and beyond! Shout out to Haylee and Libby!! Their car traveled 30 feet! Amazing!
Fourth graders were challenged by Mrs. Burd to build a 3-story building that could withstand a 15 second earthquake. They did so well!

Brilliant minds at work! With the 5th graders look comfy and relaxed, their brains are hard at work taking their math state assessments.
The first graders became doctors today! Surgeons to be more exact. All week they have been learning about contractions so today they gowned up, then cut apart and stitched words back together with apostrophes. Thankfully all of the “patients” were saved.
The weather might be too windy to read outside. However, Miss Rohleder’s class knows how to relax while enjoying a good book.
