More fun pictures from the 3rd Grade Bazaar.
For our economics standards, the third-grade teachers held their 1st annual bazaar where the 3rd grade students created a classroom marketplace where students participated as both buyers and sellers using pretend money that they earned in the classroom.
Students were invited to bring in gently used toys, stuffed animals, or handmade items to "sell" at our class store. They learned earning, saving, spending, supply and demand, and making smart financial choices—all in a fun and interactive way.

Our 5th grade students had the special pleasure of attending the Spirit Of The Falls Music Encounter today.
Students learned more about the Spirit Of The Falls Band through engaging musical activities and concerts. Thank you to all who made such a special experience possible.
🎶 The Link Up program is inspiring 3rd to 5th graders to engage in music education by partnering with local symphonies. Students learn to sing and play instruments in music class, culminating in a concert with a professional orchestra. Every March, over 2,400 4th graders from Southeast Idaho join the Idaho State-Civic Symphony for a memorable side-by-side performance at the Stephens Performing Arts Center.
Our fourth graders are enjoying this special experience this morning.
A special thank you to Ms. Finner for helping us keep our love for music alive! 🎻✨

Mrs. Hanini's class has wrapped up our Community Project-Based Learning (PBL) experience with a fantastic project: creating a detailed brochure about American Falls. Throughout this journey, our students have worked collaboratively, showing dedication and creativity as they explored what makes our community unique.
Together, they researched and identified interesting facts about American Falls, from its history, to local landmarks. They also explored the area’s climate and its impact on the community, ensuring their brochures are both engaging and informative. Along the way, they developed a deeper understanding of what a community is and how we are all connected within it.
We were able to distribute our brochures about AF to the city hall, post office, sheriff’s office, library, and court house.
Our STEM Ambassadors went into the classrooms today and did a mini Engineering group activity today. The students had a blast learning how to collaborate and revise their engineering process!
