Students in Mrs. Godfroy's first grade class at Schurz Elementary had a great time discovering the answer to our science question this week - "Why don't trees blow down in the wind?" These Schurz Tigers started off with umbrellas to see if they blew over from the wind created by Mrs. Godfroy. Then they turned their umbrella into a tree to compare it and see how easily it would be knocked over. Having fun the #WatertownWay!

#WatertownWay LEAP students participated in Global School Play Day yesterday morning. The goal of Global School Play Day is to bring awareness to the decline of play in our culture and to educate on the benefits and necessity of it. We spent the first 20-60 minutes of school enjoying unstructured play. The only rules are no screens/technology and teachers can't interfere unless there is a safety issue. It was very fun to watch what the kids came up with during this fun play time!
