When a civics lesson and an upcoming holiday come together, it's a good time for an activity.
Mrs. Brazie's fifth grade social studies classes have been learning about branches of government and their responsibilities. To add a seasonal flair to the proceedings, she put some multiple choice questions inside of plastic easter eggs and scattered them around the room to engage students in a "Branches of Government Easter Egg Hunt!"

One Final Reminder: Today (Thursday, 4/17) is the annual go-home-early drill. All students are being dismissed 15 minutes earlier than normal.

Our last order of the year included these novels in verse. Many students love stories told in this form. These books often engage even our most reluctant readers.
