Story Trails

We had so much fun doing these story trails with How Groundhog's Garden Grew! The students worked so hard to put important details from the story on their paper and have their classmates walk along their trail to see what the story was all about! How cool!

Field Day

WOW! What fun we had at Field Day this year! Here is a little sneak peak of all the fun we had:

LISDOLA Field Trip

We had so much fun at our LISDOLA field trip! We got to see so many great things and learn so much information about plants and animals!

Perot Museum
