During STEAM time, Mrs. Martin's PreK class used Chromebooks and Starfall to explore a lesson about pumpkins. Students read about pumpkins and learned about the letter U. The students had fun decorating their own virtual pumpkins before wrapping up the activity.
In this interactive virtual reality STEM lesson, Mrs. Hollis's first graders engaged in "Skip Counting with Skribby." The students practiced skip counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s while following animated clothing. They also used wall clues to discover hats hidden beneath number tiles. Additionally, they sequenced clothing items to continue counting by 5s and 10s. Mrs. Elliott, the ITRT, facilitated the lesson.

All students and staff are safe and back inside. The superintendent, school administration, and top law enforcement officials are meeting today to generate solutions around this. Please report, do not repost any threats you may see. There is no credible threat at this time.
