The Floyd playground was the place to be today thanks to Mrs. Chaffin and her bowling lane. 🎳❄️
Today during recess, some Pine River students spent their time creating cards for the residents at Colonial Villa with Ms. Monique. This is how our students are learning the importance of giving back to the community and spreading joy beyond our school walls.
Mrs. Shunn’s fourth-grade class at Pine River was shaking things up today to discover whether a mountain will last forever.
Mrs. Clements’ fifth-grade class had a great field trip to the Chippewa Nature Center despite the cold weather. Students participated in engaging indoor activities focused on Indigenous peoples and how they survived. They explored how housing and clothing were made from hides and had hands-on opportunities to practice stringing moccasins, weaving baskets, making pottery, and creating their own string from natural resources.
In Art Extension, Pine River 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders are practicing using lines and shapes to create abstract works of art while also learning how to create reflections. They are “dueling” with a partner, challenging each other to create increasingly complex designs. The project will be finished by adding color to the final pieces.
Floyd 1st graders experienced the Delta College Planetarium today and enjoyed the lessons Follow the Drinking Gourd and Legend of the Night Sky. This was a trip perfectly paired with a recent nature lesson provided by the Chippewa Nature Center.
Mrs. Crego, our Floyd math coach, and Mrs. Diaz's 3rd graders are flexing their math muscles with their Number Corner workouts earlier today.
Our 8th grade Nature Exploration students collected samples of water at Chippewa Nature Center's Wetlands. They then learned about and practiced filtering the water.

The Pine River students had a great time playing in the snow at recess today. We were glad to see everyone today.
After a shortened schedule of classes on Friday, BCMS students participated in an Activity Day where they could choose from a variety of things to do with their fellow classmates. Activities included cookie decorating, holiday bingo, karaoke, board games, watching a movie with hot chocolate, computer games, art projects, gym time and a nature walk. A good time was had by all and it was a great way to end the semester and start winter break!
