What a wonderful week!
We are asking students the following questions:
What makes animals fascinating?
How do people observe animals to learn about their features?
How are the features of animals' bodies similar and different?
In addition to a fieldtrip, we held our Parade of Characters. All students had the opportunity to choose their favorite book character and dress up for our parade. I appreciate the effort you put in to make this a memorable school experience!
Finally, we were visited by several River Birch Alumni on Friday before the sectional football game against Brownsburg. Our Orioles faced a huge challenge against the #1 team in the state, and we are so excited a few of our former students were here to be positive role models for our learners.
Take a peek at the pictures below to see the smiles, energy, and excitement in our learning enviornments this week.
Thanks for your partnership!
