Mrs. Beard’s class goes on weekly Wednesday walks to check out the student work hanging in the building.

When they returned to class, they decorated their lockers with the Easter eggs they found.
Mrs. Bierman’s 2nd grade class used eggs as a non-standard measurement to determine the distance of their bunny hop. They also read the story, The Easter Bunny’s Assistant, and are writing opinion papers stating that they would like to be the Easter Bunny’s helper. They brainstormed job duties and filled out applications for the job! We will see if any of them get hired!
