We were busy bees in kindergarten today! We pretended to be bees 🐝 and pollinated flowers around the classroom!


Mrs. Ball's classroom has been enjoying learning all about parts of a plant. We even made some actions to help us remember all the parts! 🌱 🪴

Next week is Red Ribbon week! Every day is an opportunity to live drug-free!


Congrats to our fundraising top students!!
Because of your help , our Cards for a Cause brought in additional PTO funds. Between the Change Wars and this fundraiser, we've earned enough money to purchase adjustable basketball hoops for the playground!!
We are grateful for our McDonald families and our PTO for all of their support!




What is the number one factor of student success?
Answer: Instructional quality and delivery style.
This month we have been reflecting upon student readiness, learning goals, and student buy-in.
For some of us , playing learning target bingo brought out the competitive side.

Mrs. Rowley's class compared strengths and weaknesses of multiple design solutions. Students had to go through the design process to build a tower out of spaghetti noodles to hold marshmallows on top. There was a lot of creative ideas!






Today got a little spooky 👻 in Ms. B's 5th grade math with a flashlight decimal multiplication review.
