Two of Miss Wagor's students, Jaxon and Anthony, see Mrs. Hasbrook daily to work on phonics skills. This time, these two students became the co-teachers and had the opportunity to teach their class what they have learned so far this year! Way to go, Jaxon and Anthony!

Students from Mrs. Margiasso’s Kindergarten class and Miss Prinz’s 5th grade class collaborated to work on the topic of Space.
Students in Miss Prinz’s 5th grade class have been learning all about space and the different planets in the solar system. Throughout the last couple of weeks, the students have been researching two planets of their choice. Students had to take their findings and put the information onto banners as well as mini booklets to share with the Kindergarten class. After researching, the students in Miss. Prinz’s class then had to create a paper mache replica of their planet to share with Mrs. Margiasso’s Kindergarteners.
In order to prepare for their visit to Miss Prinz’s fifth grade class Mrs. Margiasso’s kindergarten class was introduced to the theme of space the week prior. Everyday the class did a different read aloud that went along with the theme of space and the solar system.
During the collaboration, Mrs. Margassio’s Kindergarten class came to sit in Miss Prinz’s 5th grade class and listened to each group present about their planets. Each group went to the front of the class with their banner, booklets, and one paper mache model of their planet. A member of each group presented facts about their planet and explained to the Kindergarteners how they made their paper mache planet. A member from each group also passed around their mini booklet that they made for the kindergarteners to be able to flip through during their presentations. Both classes were super engaged and excited throughout the presentation. This project and collaboration was a great implementation of our P2 traits of open-mindedness and teamwork for each class!
