Read Across America week, Day 2 came with bubbles, sunglasses and goggles! What fun it is to be a Reidville Rocket!!
Read Across America Week is celebrated from March 4-8 — it is always near the birthday of the beloved author, Dr. Seuss. The entire month of March, in fact, is dedicated to reading. The week is set aside and is aimed to encourage reading and educate people about its benefits, especially among children.
Events are organized each day to encourage excitement with reading and will culminate with a Vocabulary Parade on Friday, March 8th.
See below for more details.
Due to inclement weather, our Fun Run will have to take place in the gym. Parents must enter through the back of the gym. We will have parking available in the back of the building, bus loop and front parking lot. There will be signs directing visitors to the appropriate entrance.
We appreciate your help in making this a successful fundraiser for our school!
*Due to changes for our schedule tomorrow, parents will not be able to come eat lunch with their students. Thank you for your cooperation with this!
Did you know Engineers Week (EWeek) was celebrated all around the world last week? EWeek is dedicated to ensuring a diverse and well-educated future workforce by increasing understanding of and interest in engineering and technology careers.
Mrs. Griffey's first grade class welcomes Mrs. Ashley Wynne, a chemical engineer at Sealed Air, to share insight into her day-to-day work as a Principal Product Development Engineer. Mrs. Wynne showed us how her team problem solves each day and uses polymers to create plastic for various companies. She brought some of the PPE she wears each day and reminded us all that safety is always a top priority!
Next, we got to observe our own chemical reactions and mix an activator with glue to change a 2D linear polymer into a 3D network polymer. We made slime!! Finally, she read us The Most Magnificent Thing by Ashley Spires and encouraged us to persist and problem solve each and every day! We are so appreciative of the time Mrs. Wynne spent sharing all about her career as a chemical engineer! #weareD5 #reidvillestrong #worldchangers
Last Friday, several of our fourth grade classrooms went on a field trip to Roper Mountain Science Center! They have been studying force, motion, energy, and light waves.
