Recess Matters
Sunrise Elementary is helping students make the most out of recess with Playworks. Playworks is a service that helps schools rethink recess by addressing safety, engagement, and empowerment. The focus is on building social skills and emotional intelligence beyond the classroom. It's only been one week and students are already learning to solve problems on their own, making safer choices, and involving everyone in an activity.
WSD3 Preschool First Day of School
School Bathroom Makeover
Widefield Elementary and D3 My Way (online school) renovated their bathrooms for the new school year by adding some positive potty words, if you will, to the bathroom stalls and walls. Students are now greeted with words and phrases of inspiration and encouragement. These words help spread positivity and remind students they are valuable and worthwhile.
Library Makerspace Activities
Elementary students across the district have been doing a number of fun makerspace activities. Widefield Elementary has been using Little Bits electronic circuitry kits and task cards with pipe cleaners. Pinello students got to use Keva planks for the first time. These spaces allow students to create, invent, and share ideas. Thank you for sharing libraries!
