Thank you to PTO for making it possible for our PE classes to go bowling this week. They had a blast!

Read Across America week is next week. We are celebrating reading with some spirit days. Attached is the plan. Have fun!

Our class started building robots with Legos and doing autonomous computer coding this week. Keep an eye on seesaw and you should see some videos of their builds. Ask them to share what they are learning with you. This week they learned how to manipulate variables in their code to get different results in their runs. They are doing great work!
