She writes: "On Friday we played 'The Hunger Games' in math class as a way to learn about probability and see who had the odds in their favor.
Each student drew a 'district' and we discussed the probability of being chosen to participate in the games based on their gender and the number of people in each district.
Students were able to compare their odds to students from other districts. This helped students understand that as the total number of outcomes increases, your chances (of being chosen) decrease. "
Great lesson, Ms. Anderson! Thank you for sharing!

She writes: "We are wrapping up our Number the Stars novel study by creating a one pager about the novel. Students have been hard at work this week using the text, their knowledge from our lessons and discussions, and their creativity to complete this task. They have been so engaged throughout this unit of study and I'm so proud of them!! "
These one pagers are spectacular! Thank you for sharing Ms. White, and fantastic job Warriors!

Her students worked on a "Genius Project" where they got to use any topic they had learned about thus far, and then dive even deeper into it. Then they created a unique way to teach the class, including with songs, skits, legos, posters and presentations!
Thank you so much for sharing, Ms. Jollie!

She writes: "My classes have been learning about the Industrial Revolution all week! They were assigned an activity to prove which was faster: to produce goods to sell the cottage industry out of one's home, or the assembly line? They worked as “factories” and had two minutes to see how many paper airplanes each factory could produce in the time one person could produce out of their home. Well, their predictions were right, the assembly line/ factory produce between 8-10 within the 2 minutes while the cottage industry only averaged 2-3. They had fun working together at the job each of them were assigned! "
Thank you for sharing Ms. Arner!
This is a great lifeskill, great work everyone! Enjoy your Saturday, Warriors!
"Our young geologists had a sweet time exploring Rocks and Minerals this week! 🪨🍫
To bring the rock cycle to life, students compared a regular Hershey's Bar with a Snickers bar. They took a closer look at the Snickers, observing its delicious layers and making connections to how sedimentary rocks form in visible layers over time.
Next, they applied heat and pressure using their hands to transform their “rock” into a metamorphic stage—just like rocks change deep within the Earth!
Finally, we microwaved the chocolate to demonstrate melting and cooling, modeling how igneous rocks are formed."
LOVE IT!!!!
Learning has never been so hands-on—or so tasty! 🍫✨
These photos may look like photos of tables. They might even look like photos of Ms. Arrowood's 6th Grade math students working hard at tables. Actually, that's exactly what these photos show. 🤔🤣
But did you know these images also display a huge chunk of the Boosterthon dollars at work?! Our outdoor classroom is really starting to come together and it couldn't happen at a better time! The weather is gorgeous, and it provides students and staff another space to learn and thrive!
Thank you for your donations, and thank you to PTO for getting them ordered! We also want to thank district office for sending a crew over to help us get these assembled!
Have a great night, Warriors!
Our 5th grade ELA teachers will use the funds to purchase class sets of fantasy novels. The fantasy novel unit is one of the most highly anticipated and beloved units in 5th grade. It takes place toward the end of the school year and serves as an engaging way to review standards in preparation for state testing. These books will help increase student engagement, strengthen comprehension skills, and reinforce core 5th grade standards.
Congratulations again to Ms. Hensley! 🎉💙💛
Thank you so much for your support, Warriors!
