Celebrations
Younger classrooms were paired with older classrooms to collaborate together for Holidays Around the World. What an incredible demonstration of the power of a K-8 campus and #GlobalPerspective
Our 3rd rotation of middle school electives finished strong! Our Beginning Theater class performed a play for 3rd grade students. Students were creative in Origami Art, Holiday Crafts, and Short Films, while others were challenged in Tinkering Lab, Puzzle Mania, Leadership, Yearbook, and Mission Possible.
Over break, students in BASE participated in several creative challenges. Students collaborated to create polar bear habitats out of marshmallows and toothpicks, they had races moving objects with air flow, created catapults and had a family potluck! #JoyfulLearning
