Did you know that speech therapists do more than just help your students produce all speech sounds correctly?
Another common thing we work on at speech is helping students improve their overall receptive and expressive language skills! One way to do this is by using our EET tool, which helps students understand how to give good descriptions about objects/events, and expand their expressive language. A great way to work on expanding sentences is by playing the game “Hedbandz”, which makes a harder language task feel like a game! Give it a try!

Do you know what form of government we have here in the United States? The third graders in Mrs. Dyal’s class do!
❤️🤍💙 A Constitutional Republic!!! ❤️🤍💙
Our social studies lessons have lined up perfectly with Constitution Month. So fun!
We have learned about different types of government,
How we are not a pure democracy and why that’s a big deal,
What the first three words of the Constitution are and why they are important, And how the Constitution is the supreme law of the land.
If you see a third grader, make sure you have them tell you what they know about the Constitution of the United States.

Ms. Fullmer's class was so excited to cheer on their classmate, Yamir, with his keyboarding accomplishment this week. Yamir won 4th place in the fifth grade district-wide keyboarding competition, winning a golden keyboard and a cash prize. Go Mustangs!

We watched Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, inspired by The Wind in the Willows, enjoyed themed snacks, and colored character illustrations from the story. 📚🎨🍿 Our students loved connecting literature to fun activities—and we love watching their excitement for language arts grow!

Our 5th graders have started learning the songs they will perform at Hope of America at the end of the year. Hope of America is a patriotic program that celebrates the core values that make America strong. They have 14 songs, some of them with actions, to memorize, so it is a big undertaking! They will also be performing one of the songs at our school Constitution Day assembly. They have loved practicing the lyrics and actions, and they are doing a great job! We are so excited to see them perform!
Miss Jacklin’s class got to learn about sunflowers this week! They had such a fun time making their own and learning why they are called sunflowers. Now they’re looking for all the places they can find them!
We have had a wonderful first few weeks in Miss Farnsworth's class. One of my favorite things about this class is how supportive we are of each other as we dive into the learning pit. For example, we read out loud to each other for the first time today, and everyone did so great! There were so many students brave enough to read in front of their peers, everyone cheered people on when we made mistakes, and celebrated as we worked to improve our reading! The process of making so many people into a class family can be so rewarding!
Third grade has officially started one of our favorite traditions- Culture Day! On Culture Day, visitors teach us about different countries and cultures. This week, we learned about Mongolia and Guatemala. We enjoyed discovering new traditions, foods, and ways of life. Third graders are excited to continue learning on future Culture Days throughout the year!
In Mrs. Albrecht's 4th grade class her students learned to see the human body like a machine—where muscles, tendons, and bones all work together like parts in a robot! 🦾 They built their own “robot fingers,” and by pulling a string, watched the joints bend just like real tendons pulling on bones!

The Kindergartners went on a scavenger hunt to find Pete the Cat. They learned about the different rooms they’ll be going to throughout the school year and all about our school helpers. They now are ready to “Rock their school shoes” and that if there’s a problem do they have to worry? “Goodness no! It’s all good”
