On Tuesday, Mrs. Sheppard's 2nd grade music class learned the Cha Cha Slide!

Mrs. Rysavy's 6-12 chorus is already vividly working on their spring concert songs digging into the choreography.
Mrs. Kitchenmaster's kindergarten class likes to work hard and play hard! Students used what they know about sentences to edit a sentence on their whiteboards, played "Roll, Read, and Color" to practice reading words, and just for fun, they danced along to a silly song, "Tooty Ta," for a fun brain break!




The Juniors in Mr. Sheppard's class created research presentations on their spirit animal, following a unit of nature-themed poetry. Here are some of the poems written for this project, which they presented to the class the week before winter break.
