White Ribbon week has brought some new experiences for some students. Day 3 in the Brain Center featured Pumpkin seeds, Hula Hoops and Sudoku puzzles!
What's new in the Brain Center? Peas and Jump Roping!
The Internet and social media can be good tools to use in life. But we also learned in our Net Smartz assembly that there are times when we need to be wise and careful when using computers and cell phones. Ask your children to discuss with you what they learned today!
We are looking for students to share a variety of talents on Leadership Day, Friday, February 21st. These students will line the hallways as guests arrive at the school and display leadership skills by sharing their talents. We welcome all kinds of talents! Anything from dancing to karate, juggling to origami, photography to poetry, magic tricks to miming! To participate, take a short video of your child performing or showcasing their talent, upload it to Google Drive, then share it with janelle.kraling@nebo.edu and chalyce.peck@nebo.edu. Include your child's name and teacher in the "Add a Note" box as you share it with us. Video submissions are due Friday, February 7th. Please ensure that video quality and audio are clear. Your student will be notified by Friday, February 14th if they have been selected to participate. We can't wait to see our crocs shine!
We are celebrating White Ribbon Week at Cherry Creek! Here are some ideas to consider and things to talk about with your children at the dinner table this week.
Ms. David's Class takes the trophy AGAIN with everyone in her class wearing RED! Way to show your School Spirit!
We made the 3 types of rocks today using Play-Doh! We learned how igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks are formed. Special thanks to Ms. David for supplying the "crystals" (aka glitter) for our igneous rocks!
We did a lesson on force and motion. We set off balloon rockets and timed them to see how long it took them to travel a certain distance. We used balloons with different amounts of weight attached and balloons with varying amounts of air in them. Students were then able to explain the different forces that were acting on the balloons in order to make them go faster or slower.
