Camp Mulberry camps are off to a great start with

Camp Mulberry camps are off to a great start with our Mixed Media Art Camp for younger campers and the Clay & Glass Art Camp for 3rd-5th grade.

Today, we had Matt visit, who taught us all about bagpipes and their origin. Did you know that you cannot adjust the volume on a bagpipe and they are loud of enough to be heard up to 10 miles away?

Thank you, Matt, for visiting and sharing your instrument and music with us!

"During our play unit, we wanted students to read,

"During our play unit, we wanted students to read, act, and analyze a literary play. Based off student interest and request, we decided to tackle Shakespeare's comedy, A Midsummer Night's Dream. Students engaged in lots of prework such as analyzing literary devices, biographical knowledge of William Shakespeare, and mini units of instruction on Greek Mythology. With all that work in place, students began reading and analyzing each act of the revered comedy. Students got to pick characters to act out each scene of the play. Students had daily access to the original text as well as a modern translation, to help identify motifs and themes throughout the play. Hands down the student's two favorite characters were the overzealous amateur actor Nick Bottom, and the fairy of chaos, Puck. Well done middle school!" Allison Leija, Mulberry Middle School Teacher

What better day to learn about #palindromes than on 2.2.22?

Our 3rd and 4th-grade students had a blast figuring out which numbers on the 100 chart are palindromes, 1-step palindromes, and so on. There is even a 24-step palindrome - wow!

We have ten more palindrome dates coming up this month, with 2.22.22 probably the most exciting one for maths lovers. It also happens to fall on a Two's-day.

Kindergarten students have been studying animals in the winter and learning which animals hibernate, migrate or adapt. For their hibernation study, students brainstormed in groups what a suitable den for a bear would look like, then went outside to gather materials and build a bear den.

At Mulberry, kindness is celebrated every day. Helping each other learn, big buddies reading to little buddies, caring for our school garden and the environment, checking in with each other after an accident or hurtful comment, and community service and service learning are all part of #themulberryway. Kindness is an integral part of our program starting in preschool and practiced by everyone on campus, children and adults alike, today and every day!

On this Veterans' Day, we honor all those who have

On this Veterans' Day, we honor all those who have served this country and who continue to serve!

To commemorate the day, Teacher Liz in Kindergarten shared about her dad, a Navy veteran, who served in the Vietnam War and well beyond until he retired. Teacher Liz shared the touching story of greeting her dad as a 6-year old after not having seen him for an entire year. Our Kindergarten students had many questions and got to wish Teacher Liz's dad a Happy Veterans' Day on the phone! Thank you, Teacher Liz and thank you to your dad!!

Like every year, our 3rd and 4th Grade students wrote letters to veterans, sharing their gratitude and highlights from school and their life. They put a lot of effort and detail into every letter so that the recipients can truly feel their gratitude.

Hanging out with Skeeter and Claudette, our ball pythons...just another day in 4th grade.

Fun Facts:
1. Ball pythons are non-venomous.
2. They like to be held and will curl around arms or drape around necks.
3. Ball pythons are very calm and docile snakes. They love to relax, play hide-and-go-seek, and cuddle.
4. No two snakes look alike and they can live to be 45 years old.
5. They shed regularly, which makes for interesting learning in the classroom.
6. Ball pythons got their American name because of the way they curl into a ball when they feel threatened.
