🎨 5th Grade Art This Week 🎨
This week, our 5th graders dove into a printmaking reduction project inspired by the bold patterns and rich symbolism of Kente cloth fabrics from Ghana. Students learned how patterns, color, and repetition can communicate meaning while carefully carving and printing multiple layers from a single block.

The results show incredible focus, craftsmanship, and creativity—each print is unique, just like the artist who made it!

Ms. Butterfield’s kindergarteners put their engineering skills to the test with a fun, festive challenge! 🎄🧠

Working with a partner, students were tasked with building a “Shelf for the Elf” using only popsicle sticks and Play-Doh. Teams collaborated, problem-solved, tested ideas, and made adjustments along the way—just like real engineers!

🧼✍️ Sensory Play Fun in Silver’s Room!

Mrs. Silver's students had a blast diving into sensory play today! They practiced writing in shaving cream—a hands-on way to build fine motor skills and letter formation (and help clean the tables at the same time 😉).

They also got creative making foam dough, squishing and shaping as they explored textures and worked those little hand muscles.

Learning through play is the best kind of learning! 💙🖐️🎉
