In our life skills classroom, students participated in an exciting jungle-themed animal sound hunt during speech with Ms. Bailey and Ms. Serrano. Students worked together as a team to search the classroom for hidden jungle animals, listening carefully for different animal sounds and matching each sound to the correct animal. This engaging activity encouraged communication, listening skills, turn-taking, problem-solving, and collaboration while making learning fun and interactive :)

Third grade Spanish classes from Mr. Rodriguez, Mrs. Juarez, and Ms. Pinilla had a fun-filled day exploring our cross-curricular Weather and Climate unit through Benchmark and STEMscopes! ☀️☁️🌦️

We started with a collaborative reading lesson, connecting literacy and science as we shared ideas and learned together. Then, we headed outside with our “Cloud Hunters” to spot and identify different types of clouds in the sky. 🔎☁️

It was a great day full of teamwork, discovery, and sky-gazing fun!

Mrs. Spraker's mathematicians learned about error analysis as they determined if fraction comparisons were true or false. Students had to work together in small groups to reach a successful end. Great job, class!

Ms. Mercado & Mrs. Garay's classes have been working with reversible and irreversible changes using heat in science. We had a delicious snack after graphing how long different materials would take to melt with heat. Our 2nd graders were super engaged! Great job 2nd grade :)

Today, our kindergarten children experienced something truly special 🦋✨

Through a hands-on activity, they observed the butterfly life cycle step by step: from a tiny caterpillar, to the chrysalis, and finally becoming a beautiful butterfly.

Each day was a chance to learn, care, and discover how nature changes over time. And today was the most exciting moment… we released the butterflies! 🌿💫

With big smiles and curious eyes, the children learned that every process takes time, and that growing also means transforming.

A meaningful experience they will always remember 🦋💛
