🦃 5th graders had an important job this week! Their mission was to disguise a turkey so it wouldn’t be eaten on Thanksgiving. 🍽They used items around their house to disguise their turkey so it couldn’t be found on Thanksgiving. They then wrote about their turkey and presented it to the class.
The 1st grade students made handprint turkeys for Thanksgiving. They did an awesome job!
Earlier this month, the 5th grade class had a fun challenge posed to them by the ND Women Involved in Farm Economics Group. This challenge was for 5th grade students across North Dakota. Students were to find as many small words as they could out of the large word AGRICULTURE. 👩🏼🌾🧑🏻🌾 Those with the most correct words won cash prizes. Marlene Kouba visited our classroom today & presented winners with their prizes. (Winners are listed 1st - 5th in the picture from left to right). The 5th grade class thanks the ND WIFE group for this fun opportunity.
