The Summer Countdown continues in Mrs. Menard’s and Mrs. Boykin’s room. Monday was Glow Day and their balloon pop revealed popsicles for a class treat. During math rotations students got to participate in bowling away (subtraction), glowing numbers (putting numbers in order 1-100), roll and add, Minus 1 and spin a number. What an awesome way to review skills.

🎉🍦 What a fantastic 2 weeks of GMAS testing we had at our school! Our amazing 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders truly gave their best effort and were rewarded with extra recess and free snow cones as a token of appreciation. Throughout each week of testing, students earned stars for their hard work and dedication, and those who received all their stars got to vote for their favorite snow cone flavors. We're excited to announce the winning flavors for this year: Blue Razz, Toxic Waste, Tigers Blood, and Pucker! Thank you to all the students for their commitment and determination during testing week. Here's to more successes and sweet rewards in the future! 🌟🍧 #GMAS #HardWorkPaysOff #SchoolSpirit
