The 4th and 5th graders visited the Dakota Discovery Museum, National Guard Armory and Corn Palace. Their favorite parts were sampling MRE meals our soldiers eat in the field, the murals and the artifacts at the museum! Thank you Sgt. Steinle and Troy Magnuson for the tours!
The 4th graders are studying gravitational energy, speed and collisions using a paper track and marbles.
Pre-K students are learning the difference between Living and Non-living things. We compared gummy worms and earth worms today using our 5 senses, oddly enough none of them wanted to taste an earth worm! Ha! We created a comparison chart as a class to demonstrate how scientists take notes to remember the details of their experiments.
When we had completed the activity, students were able to take the earth worms outside to be placed in the grassy area at school. Some friends LOVED the worms, some friends did not!
The 7th Graders went to the Corn Palace this morning for Camp Med, an event sponsored by the South Eastern SD Area Health Education Center. Here they visited booths that introduced them to a variety of careers available in the Healthcare field. They got to see a cow's heart and lungs, hear from a professional mental health therapist, check their hands for bacteria and germs, and many other activities. They also got a goodie bag filled with fidgets and more specific information about the Health Career Cluster. It was a good experience!
These 5th grade girls were showing off their acrobatic abilities at recess this morning.
