On December 22, Mrs. Throndson’s homeroom performed a readers’ theater for fellow 4th graders and their families. The kids knocked it out of the park!








We played games in the gym with each 4th grade homeroom competing against one another—so much fun and great teamwork!




Our 4th graders celebrated grade-wide today! One group showed off their creativity by building with Legos. So much imagination!




So much laughter in Mrs. Throndson’s homeroom today! The class played charades and enjoyed it so much they didn’t want to stop—even recess could wait!

From "Elves Off the Shelf" to all things Gingerbread, the students in Mrs. Knutson's Preschool class have had a fun and memorable December! Wishing everyone Happy Holidays!





Spanish I students did an activity last week called "Dos verdades y una mentira" (Two truths and a lie). They each had to write 2 true statements from our class story and one lie, in Spanish. Then, using the "inside/outside circle" method, they read aloud their statements to a partner. The partner had to guess the lie. The inside circle rotates one position clockwise to practice with a new partner. This is great practice for writing, speaking, and listening!



The Third Graders and their families made tie blankets for Project Linus.





The Third Graders and their families made tie blankets for Project Linus. The blankets are donated to the New Hampton hospital where they are given to children. Project Linus's mission is to provide love, a sense of security, warmth, and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new handmade blankets lovingly created by third grade students and their families. Thank you to the third grade families for their donations and support with this heartwarming project.

iJAG students are currently working on one of their service project initiatives; making tie blankets for the nursing home residents. When they return from break, they will present the blankets to the residents in person.



These three year olds have been busy in December! The students sorted in the sensory table with magnetic wands, jingle bells, tinsel, and pompoms. They played with their peers in the dramatic play center with a hot cocoa stand, Christmas baking, and a tree to decorate. In the writing center, the students wrote letters to Santa and put them in the mailbox to send them to the North Pole. In art, the preschoolers painted with pine boughs and created their own reindeer directed drawing. So many engaging ways to learn and play with friends!








5th and 6th grade students use TRIBE tickets to enjoy some hot cocoa on this fun Friday @NHMS!
