I had a wonderful opportunity to visit Mrs. Pleinis's 4th grade ND studies class yesterday to talk about the Pronghorn. We discussed some of their characteristics, habitat, diet, and their ND range. I also had a chance to inform the students of the many outdoor/hunting opportunities we have in the state of North Dakota. Thanks for the invitation!

In Library last week, grades K-2 focused on Fiction vs. Non-Fiction, while grades 3-5 learned more about genres. 2nd grade completed a cut and paste sorting activity, while grades 3-5 completed an adventure-themed obstacle course, drew graphic novel strips, and wrote short mystery stories using spinners to help guide their plot.

Learning in 2nd & 3rd Grade!

Our 2nd and 3rd graders have been busy learning about different types of materials and their purposes in science! They conducted an experiment to see how the materials used in diapers help with absorbency—a fun, hands-on way to put their learning into action!

Our students also welcomed Bob Larson, who visited to teach them about how banking works. The students had LOTS of great questions!

A big THANK YOU, Bob, for taking the time to share your knowledge with our students! We appreciate our community members who help make learning meaningful and connected to the real world.
