Cougar Nation

The Kindergarten classes had a great time on their field trip to the Youth Pavilion today!

The 4th graders enjoyed a day of learning about bike safety and then getting the opportunity to bike to Prairie Bridges. While at Prairie Bridges we celebrated their graduation from elementary school with a lunch and some fun activities of gaga ball, volleyball, football, rock painting, bracelet making, and making slushie lemonade with a bike blender. Lastly they got to take a picture with their class tree!

Mrs. Price's class worked on designing their own games during Cougars Critical Thinkers class. In groups, students decided the format and rules. They also made the boards, game pieces, materials, and the math problems that were used for the game. They had to play the game themselves to make sure it worked. After that, students got to play others' games!

🐾The 8th graders got to donate the money they raised from their penny war to Retrieving Freedom. They raised over $600 that will be used to change lives through the training and placement of service dogs for veterans with disabilities and children with autism. 🐾

Mrs. Bear's class has been learning about different animals during Cougars Critical Thinking class. Recently, students had the opportunity to budget which animals they would like in their zoo. After looking at an example map, students decided where to locate the animals, bathrooms, and walking paths in their own zoo.

Kindergarten wrapped up their study of embryology with an opportunity to hold the chicks and observe them. Thank you to Farm Bureau's Ag in the Classroom program for the opportunity.

With creating golf courses reflecting a country of their choice, 6th grade SAIL had the opportunity to learn about other cultures. We stopped at Ledos Bakery which the kids said they want to go back to again, S. International Market, and La Placita Mexican Store. We ended the day with Palmer's Family Fun where the students tried their hand at a real mini golf course along with other activities. Several students tried new foods and activities!
