Historical School

Third graders blasted back into the past yesterday and arrived in the year 1888. After learning about life during that time period, students were able to experience it for themselves. The students enjoyed having school in the one room school house, where they did reading, writing, and arithmetic. The students also had a great time touring the Dawes County Museum!

We had a fantastic day on our bird watch last week. We had great weather and were able to see lots of birds. Thanks to all the parent/family volunteers that helped us with our trip!

Rock Cycle

The way to a young scientist mind is through their stomach. We enjoyed learning about the rock cycle using starburst. We started by cutting our starburst into pieces to represent sediment. After, we put them together to make a sedimentary rock. Then, we applied heat and pressure to create a metamorphic rock. 

(We were having so much fun Mrs.Olson forgot to take very many pictures.)

A Great Week at CIS!

Wow, have we had a great week! We started the week celebrating Martin Luther King Jr with the rest of the school. We had a wonderful time learning about a great man with our 4th grade buddies. 

Hudson brought a surprise for us to check out! Aren't they cute?

We are officially 100 days smarter! To celebrate we raced to 100 in math!
