To learn about and celebrate the Native American we had Native American Heritage day. On the day we had some Blackfeet dancers perform for us. We saw Jingle dancing, Girl's Fancy dance, Traditional Ribbon Dance, Grass Dance, Men's Fancy Dance, and Chicken Dance. Afterwards we joined the dancers for the Friendship circle dance, which symbolized we became friends for life. In the afternoon, the students made talking sticks and acted out Blackfeet stories. The talking sticks were all put together to make a school ladder that can be found out on the school's nature trail!! The whole school had tons of fun. |

The Third and Fourth Graders boarded Hook Scallywag's ship yesterday and completed 6 challenges to become a pirate and earn their pirate names!! We had a blast building paper pirate hats, extending spyglasses, air cannons, treasure maps, a ship flag that could be hoisted, and pirate ships that could float!! To complete these difficult challenges we had to work as a team to become a true pirate.mWe had a HOOK of a time on pirate day!! The third and fourth graders had a blast building 3-D place value chart today. We got to build the ones place all the way to the Millions!! We learned that each place is ten times bigger. ONES, TENS, HUNDREDS, THOUSANDS, TEN THOUSANDS, HUNDRED THOUSANDS, MILLIONS!!!!
