2nd Graders also celebrated the 100th Day of School with different activities!  They counted out 100 fruit loops and then got to eat the cereal with milk.  Some students got to see how many jumps they could do in 100 seconds.  Mrs. Davis and Quinn McSweeney dressed up as centenarians.  What a fun day in 2nd grade!

The First Graders celebrated the 100th Day of school doing some fun activities!  They made a 100’s Hat, looked for 100 chocolate kisses, stacked 100 cups, found out how long 100 cubes measured, made a picture using 100 shapes and painted a picture using 100 dots.  Thanks to our 1st Grade Team for making the 100th Day of School so fun!

The Impossible Shot is becoming a daily occurrence at Cherry Creek!  Today, Ximena Acevedo, a 6th Grader in Mrs. Jarvis’ Class, made the Impossible Shot!  Congratulations!  Is luck, skill or positive thinking?  Whatever it is, Cherry Creek Crocs are making it seem easy!

On Thursday and Friday, the 6th Graders were posed a problem:  How do you help a community lessen the effects of earthquakes and volcanoes?  Here’s pictures of their  thought process and solutions.

This past Friday, we had 3 Winners for Spirit Day!  Mrs. Golding’s 1st Grade Class, Mrs. Frossard’s 4th Grade Class and Mrs. Nielson’s 5th Grade Class had 100% of their students Rockin’ the Red.  Congratulations!  Thanks for showing your School Spirit!

Mrs. Frossard’s 4th Grade class is learning about Utah History.  Native American people that lived in the Utah area wove baskets to carry things in, such as plants.  Students in Mrs. Frossard’s class wove paper strips together to make baskets to help them understand how others carried & transported things.

The Impossible Shot is becoming a daily news item!   Calebh Estrada, a Kindergarten student in Ms. Davis’ class, made the Impossible Shot yesterday!  How are the Leaders of Cherry Creek making this so possible?

Students in Mrs. Smallcomb’s music class used Boomwhackers to learn about Tempo and Pitch.  Mrs. Smallcomb finds unique ways to teach the basics of music.  She makes learning music fun and interesting!

The Impossible Shot is becoming more probable at Cherry Creek!  Nicolas Ruiz, a 5th Grader in Mrs. Jarvis’ class, made the Impossible Shot on Monday.  What is it?  Are we our students thinking about Habit 1:  Begin With the End in Mind?  Or Habit 4:  Think Win-Win?  What ever is happening, the Impossible is not Impossible at Cherry Creek!
