I'm a lifelong learner!
That was the theme of the week as we practiced expectations, delved deeper into academic content across subject areas, took risks, made predictions, made (and celebrated) mistakes, improved ideas, increased stamina for rigorous work, intentionally practiced perseverance through very complex tasks, and expanded our community culture.
We are all learners who incorporate our individual strengths and interests to impact the community. This discovery was embedded within a myriad of authentic kindergarten classroom experiences.
We will ALL learn from--and with--each other...together! .



Tonight's Boys Basketball Game has been postponed due to the weather. No School on Monday. Monday night's Girls home game against McGregor is also Parent's Night. Have a great weekend!

A Very {HUGE} Special Delivery: This week, our class was surprised by a BIG gift--a gigantic magnetic board! This gift was generously donated by a student's family and set on stabilizing legs and wheels by Mr. Rohde.
Students immediately began work building words and structures with our magnetic manipulatives. What an asset this will be for our daily math and literacy play-based learning activities! A BIG thank you goes to our donor family and our Floodwood Industrial Tech Department.

A huge “Thank You” to everyone who donated money during the Winter Program for the 5th/6th Laurentian trip at the end of January! There’s still time to donate if you would like!
