#Kindergarten has been getting into the #SpookySeason & working in groups to create 3-D #Math pumpkins! Each group chose a lucky number, then showed the number in different ways; written out, counted out, or in a tens frame. They also had a chance to create a fun #pumpkin face!









First grade logged onto their Chromebooks for the first time in #Technology class this week! Studies have shown that when students use computers at school it positively influences their academic achievement, makes them more active participants in the classroom, & prepares them for the ever-changing & digitizing workforce.

Mr. Dolan's 8th grade classes participated in an Ellis Island Immigration simulation today, in which most students were immigrants, as well as an inspector/doctor. Students packed five essential things they would need to bring with them to a new country in a gallon sized bag, but the deal was that the bag had to close! The goal of this lesson was for students to understand the basic steps in the inspection process of immigrants at Ellis Island. #socialstudies #grade8 #history #ellisisland

Do pumpkins sink or float? 🤔 🎃 Mrs. Picone's 1st grade class found out the answer to this puzzling question & others, during a day of predictions, experiments & observations! They found out that pumpkins do indeed float, what pumpkin "guts" smell & feel like, & how many seeds were inside this particular orange orb! Can you guess how many???











Mrs. Picone's first graders were working together yesterday afternoon in Math with their number lines. #mathisfun #grade1 #worktogether
