Classroom Connections π‘
Artists in Ms. Purich's 1st grade classes worked on self-portraits shown below. They are all unique!
Ms. Matuch & Ms. Kuch led learners before school this week for our 1st Sunrise Yoga Club meeting. There was so much interest they formed two groups that join us to start their days with a quiet mind and calm body!
3rd grade scholars in Mrs. Bartlett's class have been working to increase their vocabulary by discussing shades of meaning. Check out all of these "shades" of commonly used adjectives!
Learners in Mrs. Howe's class have been studying communities, both in their classroom and in North Olmsted. Students worked together to create maps of their community, including the places to get goods and services!
