News from the Math and Enrichment Room



VUES Kindergartners earned a POPS Paw and chose to pay a visit to our “play” room!



The 4th grade starts on the Winter Village by sifting and sorting through thousands of Lego pieces to reconstruct the 5 year collection of holiday sets.
The Winter Village is in minifigure scale. We also did some micro and macro building that produced GIANT figures and tiny toys.




The Master Builder photographs his classmates for the school blog. We will miss you, EB. Good luck in your new school!




Happy vacation, and may all your Lego dreams come true!

Puppets in Education visited on Tuesday




Yesterday, our school was fortunate to have had "Puppets in Education" come to our school. They talked to us about bullying and how to prevent it by using various strategies for example: being assertive, or even just finding humor in the conversation to distract the bully.  Thank you, VUES Community Group for providing the funds for Puppets in Education!
