Thank you to Katie from The Great Plains Zoo for bringing the Zoomobile to MV Elementary this afternoon. The students asked some difficult questions and got to pet a turtle and a snake.








Today was Grinch day! The lower elementary celebrated with different stations and activities including a directed drawing, making grinch dough, and listening to the Grinch story and making the Grinch heart grow! We ended the day with our own Whofeast, including Who Hash, Who Pudding, WH2O and even Roast Beast! And we of course had to watch the original Grinch movie.
Thank you to all who made it possible for us teachers to create these experiences for our students! Fun was had by all!
