Congratulations Lady Bears on your win tonight against Cromwell! Go Polar Bears!!

Kindergarten students were challenged this week with the task of using their creativity to develop rules and procedures for math games. Given nothing more than sets of math materials, students came up with brilliant ideas and persevered through struggles alongside their peers. They were especially good at teaching their games to peers. So much more learning happens when children have the opportunity to play, use their creativity, and express their learning toward others to aid their understanding. Way to work, Kindergarten Crew!

The kindergarten crew developed core values regarding math workshop this week: 1. We work hard! 2. We make mistakes (because they cause productive struggle, endurance, perseverance, and a growth mindset that helps us learn from misconceptions)! 3. We work together! Every single activity in our classroom this week addressed at least one of these core values and many addressed all three. We are building a strong foundation for success!

Happy Boss’ Day! Today Floodwood School staff is celebrating our amazing boss, Dr. Rae Villebrun! You go above and beyond to make sure everything that you do is in the best interest of the students and staff. Thank you for what you do!

Trash to Treasure with STEM! K-2 students dug in deep with our first STEM lab on Friday. We learned about and applied each step of the inquiry process as we read a picture book and then designed unique inventions with fellow team members. We are excited to improve our designs when we meet again.
