Students learned about the three types of rocks and have studied them in depth. They also created Sedimentary Rock Sandwiches to celebrate the end of Sedimentary week!
Kindergarteners have been busy! They love doing projects and learning how the world works!
Big thanks to the Boone Rotary Club! They donated 3 books to each of our second grade students. It’s great to have supportive community partners in Boone!
