Congratulations to the cross country team on a great meet last night at the Mini Mid-Illini Invitational in Pekin. Lots of individual medals earned and Zack Born broke the course record!!! Way to go Redbirds!
7th Grade Math students are up and thinking!
Students in 5B and 5D have been working on building community, considering others' ideas, and learning to successfully work together. Given limited supplies, they were to create a way to move the marbles from one cup to the other without touching the cups or the marbles. Sounds a lot easier than it was...ask your young 5th grade scientist!
2B has been spending some time getting to know each other!
8th graders working on The Four 4s task today.
