Today was Rock Your School Day at Tyger River Elementary! 🎶🎸🎹🎤
Rock Your School is an annual global movement that helps educators transform regular school days into creative, engaging, and memorable learning experiences.
Our students had a great day creating their own "kindness rocks," singing karaoke, playing rock music with Mrs. Gill, and enjoying read alouds from special guests!
Our staff also competed in a rock-paper-scissors game throughout the day. Congratulations to our winner--Shaun Ferguson!

Our first graders are wrapping up an amazing year-long journey studying life cycles!
As kindergarteners, they watched caterpillars and pumpkins grow in our library. Last week, they returned to see the next generation of butterflies and pumpkins thriving!
Nothing beats hands-on learning that spans the seasons! And they got to see a special surprise guest in the garden...a hummingbird!🌱✨

Mrs. Rice, Mrs. Wood, and Mrs. Williams first grade classes have been learning how setting can change with the book "How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World". The main character visits different countries/settings in the book to get an ingredient on each page since the "market is closed". For example, in Italy she gets wheat.
In class, they also got a different ingredient every day. After finally collecting all of the ingredients to make an "apple pie", students were able to get a mini apple pie and ice cream.

Mrs. Camp’s class became Math Surgeons yesterday! They rotated through stations to “operate” on numbers, identifying the value of digits, working with expanding form and strengthening their understanding of thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones.
It was fun watching them learn through movement, teamwork, and hands-on activities. These surgeons did an amazing job!

WELCOME HOME! 🇺🇸❤️✈️
Today is an extra special day for one of our families! After spending time overseas and being away from home, a very special parent is HOME TODAY! 🥹❤️
To help make his homecoming even more special, Mrs. Brown’s second grade class made a welcome home poster, and every student signed it! We were so excited to send a little love from our classroom and let him know how happy we are that he is finally back home with his family.
We are so thankful for his service and sacrifice, as well as the sacrifices his family has made while he has been away.
