Mrs. Loecker's 3rd graders had a great time reviewing math concepts that we have learned this year with a little friendly "Superbowl" game. The teams both did AWESOME and everyone earned a mini football at the end. We also enjoyed some special snacks during snack time in honor of the special occasion!

Mrs. Drotzmann's and Mrs. Loecker's classes got together to make valentine bags for the kindergarten buddies. The students did a pretty great job of making a plan for what colors to use and working together to make the beautiful bags.

Wow! Did you know petroleum jelly could double as gloves in the winter? Mrs. Loecker's 3rd graders did a fun experiment in science on why sea lions have blubber all over their bodies. We put a finger in ice cold water to see how cold it was and then covered that same finger in petroleum jelly and it was a remarklably different temperature. Science is so fun!
