Second grade wrapped up our final Cornucopia lesson on Wednesday, and what a wonderful seven weeks it has been! The students learned so much by getting their hands dirty in the garden and experiencing the growing process firsthand. This week, they enjoyed the fruits of their labor by making a delicious fall harvest butternut squash soup — a treat enjoyed by all!

Our kindergarten and first-grade students have been having a blast solving math problems in pairs! They love grabbing their easel-style desktop whiteboards and diving into challenges together. There’s so much laughter and excitement as they brainstorm, erase, and cheer each other on when they figure out the answers!
