Ryan Elementary School Update
January 2024
Kasey Verrill
Kasey Verrill is a wonderful example of an eager, hardworking student. All year she has taken an active role in class. She volunteers often to answer questions and is always ready for a challenge. She isn't afraid to ask questions when something isn't clear and this helps others who may be too scared to raise their hand. She works well in any group she is part of showing patience when others seem upset or frustrated. Kasey is a student willing to try any task asked of her. And whether she succeeds or not, she is always willing to try again the next time.

Charley Robertson
Charley Robertson is my choice for student of the month. Charley is always focusing on what must be done and using her time appropriately to ensure she gets her classwork done. Charley is a kind and responsible young lady. She is respectful to her peers and other adults in the building. Charley works well with others and ensures that people are included and get all the help they need. If Charley sets a goal she is determined to reach it which is a great motivator to others in her classroom. This makes her a great leader.

I frequently catch him being respectful, responsible, safe, and kind. Way to go, Isaiah, keep up the great work, you have a bright future ahead of you!

Fun with Gunk
By Cooper Carpenter, Aiden Rissman, Dalton Arnett, Kayden Smith
On April 26th Ms. Snellenbergers class made gunk. We mixed starch and glue to make a slimy gooey texture.
We were challenged to make really bouncy and really stretchy slime. Some of us did really well and made it really stretchy or bouncy, while some of us made it extremely sticky. It was really fun making it and only 1 person was gone. It was white because we didn’t use food coloring.
It was easier to make stretchy slime. You needed to put more glue than starch so it wouldn’t rip. It was very fun to play
with the stretchy gunk.
It was harder to make bouncy slime. You need to put in more starch so it can weigh less. It was extremely fun to play with the bouncy slime, even though barely anyone was able to make it.
Gunk is one of the most fun things we did in a half day. I'm a big fan of slime, it was really fun.
