What better way to start October than with pumpkins? 🎃 Mrs. Hodge’s class explored the pumpkin life cycle, identified its parts, and then had so much fun opening one up to see it all firsthand. Lots of smiles, curiosity, and a little pumpkin goo made for a perfect fall science lesson!






🍎 Ms. Church’s class wrapped up September with a crisp and tasty science experiment—an apple taste test! 🍏 Students became little scientists as they identified, sketched, and weighed four different apple varieties. After tasting, they compared flavors—deciding which were sweet, tart, or sour—and charted their favorites.






🎃📚 Ms. Church’s class kicked off October with a “spook-tacular” reading session! Students picked a festive fall book, found a cozy spot, and enjoyed reading in a room filled with ambient, autumn vibes. 🍂👻 A perfect way to build reading skills while celebrating the season! ✨






Mrs. Hanks class worked on reading with my student teacher, Mr. Trey! They used their fun Halloween finger pointers. The other students were working hard on their center work.
