JH HAL:
For September, the JH #HighAbilityLearners took a field trip that combined a bit of history and geography with agronomy and entrepreneurship.
• Colorado’s NE Corner Marker:

• Our Lavender Co. (Big Springs, NE)

Students toured the lavender fields, geothermal greenhouse, learned about the lavender distillation process, sampled lavender lemonade and lavender apple cider, fabricated lavender rollerballs (that they got to keep) and shopped in the gift store. Many thanks to the Palser family for hosting our tour!

3rd Grade Library:
Mrs. Turner organized a fun way for students to “taste-test” a book to see if it peaked their interest. Students found books that were “just right” for their individual “tastes.”
#plainsmenpride
Third Grade Science:
Students are learning the purpose of the parts of plants. Blume Flower Studio donated flowers to let students test if the stem brings the water to the rest of the plant. Students tested this by adding food coloring to the water.

Internships:
We’re glad that a handful of juniors and seniors chose to spend their Internship time at the Elementary, this semester. Sydney is helping Kindergartners with some one-on-one reading and letter identification.

It’s Free Candy Friday! Students are reviewing periodic table elements’ names and their corresponding symbols by playing Periodic Table BINGO. Things get pretty intense when candy is on the line. #plainsmenpride
