Celebrating our success with a blanket & fort party!
Students are allowed to bring no more than TWO blankets.
If they would like to bring in a flashlight/headlamp for reading in their fort they may.
We will build our forts & then try them as a little reading nook!

Movie, PJ's & Coco Bar Friday!


Great afternoon of watching Migration. Not only is it a great movie, but it went along with our Cycles in Nature domain for CKLA. 
THANK YOU for the donations of popcorn & THANK YOU for the donations of chocolate milk!
GREAT end to our week!!



CKLA Knowledge: Domain 5: Insects

This domain will introduce students to the largest group of animals on Earth. Students will learn:
The characteristics of insects
The life cycles of insects
How insects can be categorized as solitary or social
How insects are viewed as both helpful & harmful
For example, students will learn how insects are important to the process of pollination and in the production of honey, some cosmetics, and even medicines.
This domain will lay the foundation for review and further study of the life cycles, habitats, and classifications of insects and other animals in later grades.
