Sitting by the Campfire



On the last day of school, we sat around the "campfire" sharing stories and plans for our summer breaks. Now all we need are some smores!

Talking Behind Backs







We had a morning task today that gave new meaning to "talking behind someone's back". I wanted to do something encouraging for the students and something that would be fun on the last day of school. We went around and wrote kind notes about each other on the papers taped to their backs. It was a lot of fun and something neat to keep and look at as we get older.

Heritage Days Video

Heritage Days

This is a video from our heritage days event! It was awesome to be able to take a little trip back in time to see what life was like several years ago. We got to see a horse get new shoes, watch Native Americans cook food over an open fire, hear live bluegrass music from local musicians, a pioneer story teller, and take a gallery walk to look at artifacts new and old. We ended the day with a Heritage Day Revue and the kids did a fabulous job! Way to go, Panthers!
