Andes Central students enjoyed some St. Patrick's Day activities on Tuesday!
Mrs. Swanson's 3rd graders had a great time teaming up with their 6th grade buddies from Mr. Johnson's class on March 17th for some St. Patrick’s Day math fun! 🍀 Students played a “Rollin’ for Gold” game where they rolled two dice, multiplied the numbers, and moved along a chutes-and-ladders style board.
Afterward, buddies worked together to complete a multiplication color-by-code activity. It was awesome to see teamwork, encouragement, and math skills all in action!

In Guidance, we have had an eventful quarter; we covered 7 Mindset lessons and activities for National School Choice Week, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Valentine's Day, and most recently, Read Across America Week. Students worked on creating gratitude "gardens" and handed these to family/friends/teachers who help them grow.
Relatedly, families can ask their children what they learned from reading The Lorax. We discussed how we can grow our creativity like Dr. Suess, how we care for our trees and wild friends, and, in return, how trees and furry friends can help us feel calm, safe, and focused! Keep a look out for more creative activities and 7 Mindset lessons coming home.

In Ms. Smith’s preschool class, we have been learning all about different habitats. Last week, we studied the rainforest and learned about the animals that live in its different layers. This week, we have been learning about the savanna and our favorite animals that live there. We even measured how many preschoolers standing on top of one another it would take to reach the height of an elephant!
