Dash Fashion Show

Earlier this Spring, my 2nd graders added a little creative flair to our robotics unit...we decked Dash out in the latest fashions! The kids put their designs on paper, created patterns out of newspaper, and then worked on their final projects. What a fun way to end our robotics study.

Adopt A Shelf

Mrs. Carey and I relocated all the books in the picture below and our fabulous custodial staff has cleared out everything else.

I was fortunate to find 3 shelves hanging around storage closets that will now be used in the space. Thanks to Mrs. Carey for uncover…
