Mrs. Lewis’ 4th Graders explored bird beak adaptations. Students attempted “eating” popcorn kernels, rice, and macaroni with chopsticks, forks, tweezers, clothes pins, and skewers for “beaks.” After cleaning up the forest floor, the students ate gummy bears for dessert without using their hands! Science is so much fun!! Shoutout to Ms. Satcher at Park Creek for the idea!

To celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, Mrs. Smith’s Pre-K class enjoyed "marranitos", a traditional, Mexican sweet bread shaped like little pigs. The pig shape is a symbol of good luck, so marranitos are more than just bread, they are a special part of Mexican culture and tradition. Special thanks to Ashley Garcia and Canela & Crust for providing the marranitos for our class!
