☀️Checking out our shadows today after learning about Punxsutawney Phil! ☀️
Students in Ms. Notaro and Mrs. Fiveash's class learned how Groundhog Day is connected to weather predictions and seasons, then headed outside to observe their own shadows. They talked about how the sun’s position changes shadow size and direction. They also compared their class predictions to Phil’s famous forecast. A great hands-on way to mix science, tradition, and a little winter fun!

Our 4th graders in Mrs. Sharpe’s STEM class have been busy learning to code and problem-solve while working with Dash Bots! Through hands-on activities, students are building skills in coding, critical thinking, and collaboration—all while having fun bringing technology to life.
