Last week brought wonderful learning celebrations!
At Margaret Chase Smith Pre-K, our students wrapped up Unit 2 with a joyful Learning Celebration alongside their families. Children proudly shared their work, demonstrated new skills, and guided their grown-ups through hands-on activities from the unit. It was heartwarming to see families learning together and celebrating all the growth happening in Pre-K!
Meanwhile, Carl J. Lamb 3rd graders showcased their analytical skills during their Unit 1 writing celebration. Students selected a main character from the classic tale The Wind In The Willows and provided evidence for specific character traits. They did an excellent job demonstrating their understanding!
