3rd grade getting in cozy spots to read.








Preschool 3s had their first innovation with Ms. Enslin and Mrs. Craighton. We started our investigation into balance by building blocks and talking about how to balance them.











Every week a new kindergarten plant checker comes to the CELL each morning to help take care of some of our many plants. They double check that our plants are getting everything they need to grow and thrive and get to use a moisture meter and watering can. They also record information about the weather so we know if our outside plants are getting what they need too! This is a great hands on way for them to explore what living things need!





The Game of Life! 🎲🧩♟️ Spending and saving is a part of everyday life. Our fourth graders got a taste of 'real life' when playing this game to kick off our financial literacy unit! Stay tuned to hear how our fourth graders build skills to be financially literate and good choice makers when it comes to money.






Fun Friday was a hit in 4th grade! We have been talking about character traits of a good friend during our morning meetings and put them into action by playing with some kits from the CELL with our classmates.

6th grade finished up our late season planting today! They had a little extra time and noticed some mulch that needed spread on the path to the gardens so they tackled that, and spent their last few minutes of science collecting zinnia seeds. We've got a pretty good collection going so far and are already looking forward to expanding our zinnia patch next year!

1st grade has been listening to Fables (short stories) in reading. Today they had to retell 1 of the 6 fables as a small group and share it with the class! They did a great job retelling as well as listening to their peers.







6th grade has been hard at work this week cleaning off and prepping some garden beds to try some late season planting. We're going to try growing a couple varieties of radishes, spinach, kale, and some heat-tolerant leaf lettuces!










Hi CAL Community!
My name is Ms. Brood CAL's school counselor. I have my online classroom on the CAL's community school district webpage.
