First day of school challenge: construct a cup pyramid using only a rubber band tied to strings! The fifth graders in Mrs. Finnan’s room rose to the occasion with this fun cooperative activity!

Second graders in Mrs. Bonvouloir’s class learned the word “stamina” today and applied it to reading!

They crushed their first day and had over 6 minutes of focused reading! This practice will help students when they transition to independent tasks!

Once they reach 15 solid minutes, they’ll earn a popcorn party! 🎉
