Grade 2 Visitors
Grade 2 had some extra special visitors this week! Francesco’s parents, Carmen and Carmelo, came in to teach the class all about cells! Students were able to use a real microscope to look at cells on slides and identify the parts they learned about such as the nucleus and cell membrane. Grade 2 learned that each part of the cell works together to help it function like a small city and that cells forms tissue which forms organs that help every living thing grow and thrive! Students also had an opportunity to practice using a pipette by transferring water between containers. This fun, hands-on day inspired our students to consider a career in the sciences and always ask questions! Thank you so much to the Nucera Family for your wonderful visit!
Mardi Gras Breakfast for Lunch
We had so much fun having breakfast for lunch in honor of Mardi Gras! It was a joyful day; the students' eyes lit up when they walked into the decorated cafeteria, and they were thrilled to enjoy pancakes and oranges! Many classes also learned a little about the history of Mardi Gras, which is officially celebrated next Tuesday.
Thank you so much to the staff and parent volunteers who made the day special for our students. From washing and cutting oranges, serving and warming pancakes, and pouring syrup, to decorating and helping with cleanup, your teamwork and generosity gave all students such a fun and festive lunch!
