The 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders in ULE were a part of a sheep dissection lab with Mr. Robinson (our ULE teacher's husband) today! They compared the sheep brain to our human brains to compare and contrast the two. Great questioning, collaborative learning, and imaginative inferencing was so exciting to see! We also had several future biologists brave enough to hold it!!! So cool! What a great learning experience!

Our first whole school musical practice was a success! About once a week until showtime in March, students will gather to sing songs, practice lines and choreography as a whole group! It is so awesome to see their progression of confidence, poise, and determination to produce the best musical they can! Keep working hard! We look forward to the show!

The 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders in ULE (gifted education) learned about their brains! They then had to build a model representing the parts of their brain! They turned out awesome!
Big shoutout to the parents who brought in food/drinks for the teachers/staff and decorated the workroom during conferences this week! Such cute decor! Big thanks to the Hohn family for organizing it! We appreciate it so much and thanks in advance for the meal on Thursday!!
On Feb. 1st, the Skyforce invited Jane Addams students to come to their game for free through donated tickets from Dakotah Bank! Thank you!

Thanks for having us!
