Our kindergarteners were hard at work in math today learning how to find 1 more within 10! They practiced identifying hidden numbers, counting up to 10, and counting back down from 10 to 1. 🎯✨

🏓❤️ A HUGE thank you to Chicken N Pickle! ❤️🏓

Our Lions had an amazing time during today’s assemblies with Chicken N Pickle! They did a fantastic job introducing students to the game, explaining how to play, and—best of all—giving our students the opportunity to get out there and try it for themselves! 🙌

Beyond learning a new sport, our students were reminded of the importance of teamwork, sportsmanship, communication, and having fun together. 🏓🤝🦁

Our Lions will bring reading, creativity, and family fun together with our Family Literacy Pumpkin Project! 🧡

Families will work together to turn pumpkins into creative characters inspired by their favorite books, stories, or literary characters. What a fun way to celebrate the joy of reading while creating special memories together! 📖

Our 1st graders were working hard in math today as they built their fluency and problem-solving skills! They tackled word problems that challenged them to figure out “how many more” and use the strategy of counting on from a number to solve.

But they didn’t stop there! Students took what they discovered and represented their thinking by creating number bonds and number sentences. ➕🔢

We love seeing our firsties explain their thinking, use strategies, and make connections between representations!🦁❤️
