Students in the Cairo-Durham Middle School Mentoring Whole Group made penguin cupcakes, penguin crafts and participated in a penguin obstacle course for their most recent meeting! For the obstacle course, students had their legs wrapped in saran wrap and had to "penguin walk¨ through the course and complete a challenge such as stacking blocks, making a basket, stacking cups, crawling under a table bridge and putting checkers in a Connect Four game.

4th and 5th grade students in Miss Hasbrook's class have been working on Latin Roots, Prefixes and Suffixes! Students formed new words by adding prefixes and suffixes to the roots. With the recent snow, it was only fitting that these new words were written on snowflakes, showing that they were all related to one another with a common root.
