PBIS Goals

Our personal PBIS goals were focusing on expectations and behaviors in the cafeteria. We are making GREAT progress with these goals.  Our class won our 2nd lunchroom award at the PBIS assembly this past week!
Way to go two-time winners!!!



Loons and Bats Classroom Inquiry

Learning Target: Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text.

Our class collaborated and researched about loons and bats. Many resources were used to help us ask and answer questions we had about loons and bats. Check it out! We have gone public with our new learning!





Technology as a Learning Tool

Learning Target:
We can use technology as a tool to share our thinking while reading a nonfiction article.
