M&M graphing

Today we worked on recording information on a graph. We learned that small packages of M&M's will have between 20 and 24 M&M's in them. We also found out that there are more green candies overall. The color that had the least was brown. This is CC recording his brown M&M's.
JS has his candy all sorted.

Native American Assembly

This is SB dressed and ready for the Native American Assembly. She will be dancing with her brother, sister, and many other friends this afternoon. This morning everything stopped as we noticed the snow falling outside. It was coming down so hard, that some of us got worried about being snowed in.

Respectful Awards

This month everyone earned their respectful charm to put on their necklace. In the afternoon a few students got called upon to walk the red carpet and be acknowledged infront of the whole school. Way to go! In the morning we had the opportunity to spend our money that we have earned this month. Feathery bracelets and rockets were a big hit.
