Over the summer students participated in the Bonnie Plant 3rd grade cabbage program. They give a $1,000 scholarship to a student in each state with the best cabbage. We had three students that brought back photos. Jaxon Hill, Morgan Sheets, and Nathan Hadlock. They grew some great looking cabbages. Let’s hope one of them wins!
The kindergarten classes started "Secret Letter Detective" this week. If a student gets chosen to be the letter detective they will have a letter necklace and a bag. They are then responsible to bring something to school the next day that begins with that letter! They need to be prepared with three clues that they will present to the class. The item they bring is kept a secret and hidden in the bag until the clues have been presented!
The gingerbread man ran away from the kindergarten kids on the first day of school! The kids looked all over the School for him while learning how to line up, walk nicely and obey the school rules. They met many important Spring Lake teachers and office staff while they conducted their search. On Friday, Mr. Probst caught that wiley gingerbread man and returned him safe and sound! He wasn't safe for long though, because they ate him before he could run away again!
Third grade celebrated the first week of school by having a slice of summer. Students wrote about what they did over the summer. Then they shared watermelon slices on Friday August 22nd.
