Makerspace

We will continue our greenscreen photos with grades 2-5 next week. Students will combine a background that best represents themselves and their own personal photo using an app called Do Ink. Kindergarten and first grade will continue to explore the maker's materials we have in the classroom.

Guidance-

This week in Guidance K-5 students were talking about self-control, motivation, and organization to help them with school success! It was some great discussion, games, and the students gave input and we wrote charts about these subjects (with student input). In K-5, students will be learning about making good choices! The students enjoy the Quaver program. We will also be starting our new SALT team. Thanks for all your support!

Your Proud Prestwick Counselor,

Our district Fine Arts department is in the process of completing all the necessary procedures to become a District of Distinction through the Texas Art Educations Association. One step in the process is to host workshops or art-related activities for Texas' Big Art Day on March 2nd, 2023. We would love your support in the form of donations to help our artists have a fun night of exploring the wonders of art.
