It's a wrap! We can hardly believe that we just finished our second successful week together, but you know what they say: time flies when you're having fun in the SBLC! :)

This week in Math we calculated, recorded and graphed data about how many pockets we were wearing.

We also introduced an eco-friendly and techno-savvy method of practicing our spelling words in Language Arts. Ask your kiddos to tell you more!

In Science and Social Studies, students channeled their inner black bear! After identifying their own wants and needs, students gathered "resources" in an activity emphasizing the importance of basic needs.

  

We can't wait to experience even more exciting learning opportunities with our super stars. We're off to a blockbuster start!

We look forward to seeing you at Back to School Night this Thursday...in the meantime, have a lovely weekend!
