No more crayfish!

It is sad that all of the classroom crayfish have died! Not quite the experience we wanted, but we can't control nature.

Crayfish!














































The crayfish have arrived. Students have learned quickly about death with our crayfish, unfortunately. Fourteen crayfish arrived, and only 3 survive at this time. It has been disappointing to only this few left, but we will still learn about them. The students have had their first day exploring with the little creatures, and students will soon learn the daily care needs of the crayfish. Students will learn about the life cycle and also responsibility for a living creature.

Halloween!











A day of wind, rain, costumes, and fun was Halloween this year. The students had a great time with trick or treating and the parade. Thank you to all of the friendly neighbors who shared with our students! Even parents joined in the fun!
