Celebrating the joy of having all my kids back together again with dirt and worms. We're ready for lots of fun and learning this year.
7th and 8th graders worked in small groups today to develop norms for our classroom.
WELCOME BACK!! It is great to see all the smiles again in the building.
Today finalizes the end of the 2023-2024 school year. This is also a bitter sweet moment as I say "see you later" to one very special class. I have loved watching each one of them grow their minds and develop into such wonderful humans. I wish you all a wonderful summer! ☀️
The 7th & 8th graders traveled to Lexington, MO today to complete their study of the Civil War. They learned how to make rope, shoot a cannon, what soldier life was like, and they toured the Battle of Lexington Battlefield and the Anderson House that was used as a field hospital. Finally, we visited the Lafayette County Courthouse where students sat in the courtroom where one student's great-great-great grandfather presided as a judge in the 1940s.
Just some of the Shawnee honor roll students at the breakfast celebration.
7/8 grade held their annual arcade day for grades K-2. In STEM class, they built cardboard arcade games. Gr. K-2 had a great time testing the games!
Shawnee Student Council members enjoyed a Service Project field trip today. Using $500 they had earned from fundraisers, they purchased hygiene and food items from Walmart. Those items were then delivered to the Clinton Community of Christ Church for the Blessings Boxes. We then spent some time at the park before eating lunch at El Puerto. I'm proud of how hard these students work, especially to help others!
The Shawnee Student Council hosted an afternoon of activities for 4th-8th graders this past Friday. Students who attended enjoyed Mat Ball, Capture the Flag, several yard games, and lots of snacks!
Over the past two days, 3rd and 4th grade repurposed our crayons and markers from this school year. We created crayon initials and used our markers to make water colors.
I tried something new this year and had the 3rd and 4th graders write a class book. Each student chose an animal to research and write about. Compiled together, we created "Animals Around the World." I am very proud of their hard work and dedication to their writing and picture.
