On Friday the 3rd graders participated in a Brain Boosting Camp. Students rotated through hands-on, high-interest activities focused on student expectations needing a boost. Our morning was filled with Math activities and our afternoon with Reading. Mr. Sibley, Ms. Howard, Ms. Sanchez, Ms. Tracy Copeland, Mrs. Copeland, Ms. Singer, Ms. Green, Ms. Wiley and Ms. Peipert presented the activities and our 3rd grade teachers participated with their students. Everyone had a great time. Check out the photos below to see some of the action!

Students created pattern block designs and then graphed the number of shapes used with either a pictograph or a bar graph. |

This Friday our 5th graders will participate in their own Brain Boosting Camp. We are looking forward to having as much fun and learning as we did with our 3rd graders. Stay tuned for photos next week.
