The GT summit was a HUGE hit and it was very fortunate that we got to be a part of this up and coming future of ag.
The students got to tour three different sites in Yuma. Each site discussed the future combination of technology and ag. These companies already use technology extensively and mentioned this was only the cusp of what's to come. Their hope is to use technology for efficiency, safety, and allowing employees to work from a variety of locations.
All of these companies do business internationally. The opportunities are endless.
One of the most important parts of the day was during lunch there was a panel of successful individuals that gave their best advice to students about their future. Students were encouraged to ask questions throughout the day as well.
We would like to extend an ENORMOUS thank you to the organizers of this event, the businesses that took time to participate, and the "goodies" they gave each student.
This exposure to the future possibilities with technology and ag was very eye opening. We hope it sparked student interest to continue developing new and innovative ideas for the future.
Pieces and parts was the title of our science experiment.
Second grade had to label the inside and outside parts of a pen.
We discussed why the materials were the best "container" on the pen and whether the material was a solid, liquid, or gas.
7th graders did Rattle Bap today! A rap battle full of compliments! This was something that was shown in our Character Strong lessons. Be on the lookout for students completing their Character Dares. This week... second-hand compliments!
Home-made or store-bought? Third Grade did a blind taste test to see if they could tell the difference between a store-bought and a home-made pumpkin pie. Students observed, smelled, and tasted each sample before coming to a conclusion. They each were able to tell the correct one.

Second grade would like to thank John Lough, a veteran, for sharing his military experience with us.
The students learned about rank, different military jobs, and respecting others.
Thanks also to his wife Peggy for sharing about poppies and their significance. She also had the students listen to Flanders Field to help students never forget those that have served.
Thank you to all veterans. We will never forget!

Negative Numbers have entered the classroom! Seventh grade students have started adding and subtracting integers. They completed a walk around the classroom and computed task cards with problems.

In our combined first/second grade writing class the students were assigned a "pre assessment" on procedural writing.
To help the students understand the amount of detail required for procedural writing, Mr. and Mrs. Sanabria read the directions on some student's' writing. They did literally what the words said.
No peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were able to be made.
This was an engaging way to make it clear for the students that they will have to add more detailed steps to make truly accurate procedural writing.
We can't wait to see what growth they will make after this demonstration.
To learn more about the symbols, places, and historic documents that represent our nation, local Veterans Jules Hoschouer and Phil Mollendor came in to teach 3rd Grade about folding the American Flag. Students learned flag etiquette, what each fold means, how to fold one, and what to do with worn out flags. Thank you Mr. Hoschouer and Mr. Mollendor for teaching us about the flag and more importantly, thank you for your service.
We want the entire community to help us recognize and celebrate the Service & Sacrifice of our Military Veterans at 9am on Monday, November 13th by attending the Veterans Recognition Assembly!
Military Veterans, please join us for breakfast @ 8 am!
Wear RED, WHITE & BLUE to show your patriotism and support for our Military Veterans!
