Mr. Stollberg and Miss Olen's classes joined up for Trivia Thursday during their morning meeting! While having a blast, students worked on SO many skills - focusing attention, listening, sharing their ideas, supporting ideas with evidence, cooperation, and accepting outcomes. Learning is fun as a 5th Grade Douglas Tiger!
Students at LEAP Elementary had an egg-cellent time collecting eggs from their hens and using them for a learning project. After learning about how long it takes an egg to go from a hen to the store, students observed and compared store bought eggs to the school’s hen’s eggs - that included how the eggs tasted! Students enjoyed an egg-stra delicious breakfast straight from their own coop!
What do two former LEAP students and one current LEAP student have in common? All three of these LEAPsters had grandfathers who taught Science together at Watertown High School. See if you can decide which student belongs to Mr. Buescher, Mr. Alvarez and Mr. Niemann?
