Weekly Parent-School Connection

Weekly Parent-School Connection

Connecting school and home makes us a great community of learners! You can also engage in learning by reading the weekly newsletter that usually goes out on Fridays from your homeroom teacher in Canvas. The weekly newsletter tells you what they will study in the upcoming week, any upcoming grades, and/or activities in class. #stayconnected


Shortest to Tallest

PK-5

Gather all the soap, shampoo, and lotion bottles in your house and put them in a pile. Before lining them up, predict (make a good guess) which one will be the tallest then line them up from shortest to tallest. Was your prediction correct? Mix them up then line them up from tallest to shortest.
