Miss Thomson's kindergarten class at Sanford Pride Elementary has been studying owls for the past month. During their literacy block, they read Owls by Gail Gibbons, and White Owl, Barn Owl by Nicola Davies. The students also watched videos and researched owls by looking at real pictures of them!

During a third-grade enrichment class at Sanford Pride Elementary, students were placed in groups of 2 or 3. They were given 30 mini marshmallows and 15 pieces of dry spaghetti. They had to work with their partners and decide the best way to build their skyscraper to stand without being touched. All the students did a great job working with their partners. They were challenged to try this at home during our very snowy Saturday to see if they could build one taller.
