Study Island is one of our valuable educational programs. These students ate lunch with the teacher today to celebrate finishing all of their Study Island first grade math topics. When they finish second grade topics they are 'on the island' and celebrate with a tropical drink!

On Friday we wrapped up a unit on States of Matter by learning the science behind an ice cream float. Students learned about nucleation as the carbonation in the soda reacted to the ice cream. It was a fast experiment!
