8th grade ELA students had a silent debate about their graphic novel excerpt to finish up their unit on Holocaust-era literature. By responding to questions on the poster, students had to take a position on 4 different topics and support those positions with text evidence. They were then given the opportunity to silently reply to one another's stances and to ask questions.

Sixth graders reviewed for their test on equations by playing "Capture the Flag" this week. 🚩They enjoyed getting out of their seats collecting flags for their correct answers. At the end, they discovered the flags were worth varying points, and the fastest team didn't necessarily with the game. 😮
This is what a happy little artist looks like!

Mrs. Robinson's kindergarten class had their own Super Bowl party. We designed our own helmets, jerseys, played bingo, practiced addition, and had a fun snack.
The 5th grade students recently finished up their plaster formed, conversation hearts! We learned about 2D vs. 3D and how awesome plaster can be when it's not being used for broken bones!
Kinders 🩷 speech therapy!
A couple of kindergarten speech students got crafty today while practicing on their speech and language skills!
Speech students strive for a high number of repetitions when they are working on their articulation skills! They like to battle their way to 100! This means they are getting an opportunity to practice their speech sound 100 times! 🤩
This week we are highlighting the Monroe Elementary kitchen staff! They make up a critical component of the school dynamics!
Thanks for being so great!
