First grade knows the brain is the control center of the body. They learned that when different parts of the brain get damaged, it can have a serious impact on coordination, memories, or even cause death. Students designed helmets with their eggs being the brain; the goal was to find ways to keep the brain safe from concussions when playing a sport like football. "Brains" were dropped from 25cm, 50cm, 75 cm, 100cm and then from 200cm. All helmets but 3, passed the challenge!

MS girls ended their volleyball season last weekend. The "A Team" did well, finishing 2nd in Basin and really pushed themselves the whole way. The "B/C Jamboree" won all their games in Shoshoni and our "B Team" was totally undefeated this season! "C Team" picked up the fundamentals quickly and all of our athletes worked hard each practice to get better and better! I'm excited to watch these girls continue to work together and to see what they'll accomplish!

This week in our STEAM class, students explored the concept of volume. The challenge was to design and construct a gift box capable of holding 10 small cubes. Students were limited to using only 6 index cards and 12 inches of tape to create a cube-shaped box with minimal extra space. Please take a moment to explore some of their designs and the reasoning behind their gift box creations, which are on display in the library.

Lots of Constitution Day activities today! Our 3rd graders joined a nationwide mock trial to spark interest in Civics, serving as members of the jury, and eventually voting in with a "not guilty" verdict. The mock trial can be viewed in its entirety here:

Mrs. Cauffman's first graders explored the circulatory system with the help of our school nurse, Susie Peterson. They found their own pulse, listened to a friend's heartbeat through handmade stethoscopes, and found that exercise increases the body's need for oxygen.
