The 3rd Grade was able to help save Fred! The poor little worm fell out of his boat and needed to get to his lifesaver. Each group of partners were only equipped with paperclips, but they were able to figure out lots of ways to get the lifesaver around him so he could get to safety.
1st Grade took a Field Trip to the Riverside Gymnastics Academy for My Day Friday. They had so much fun trying out new things, and especially loved jumping into the foam pit.
Happy last day of school! This is just a reminder that today is an early release for students at 1:00 p.m. Have a wonderful summer break!
Here are some more pictures from OMSI's Radical Reactions visit. Ms. Dawkin's class enjoyed their presentation.
