Kindergarten kicked off their new reading unit with excitement! Students learned they will be using their "superpowers," such as pointer power and snap word power, to practice reading every day. Ms. Super Power made a special appearance to sing a song and introduce some of the fun activities they will explore during this unit.
During their science block, 2nd-grade classes invited Ms. Hicks, the MTSS lead, to teach them how to use sketch notes to process informational text. The lesson centered on understanding how erosion impacts Earth’s landforms. As Ms. Hicks conducted a read-aloud, students actively created sketch notes in their science journals to visualize and discuss how wind and water contribute to erosion. Through partner sharing and their completed sketches, students demonstrated their ability to explain and illustrate the causes and effects of erosion by the end of the lesson.

Hart has the best PTO. Thank you to all the volunteers who gave their time to provide our staff the gift of wrapping. We appreciate you so much!
Hart students and staff did a great job during this mornings fire drill.
Gingerbread frenzy as Kindergarten searched the premises of Hart Elementary. This silly Gingerbread disrupted recess and made appearances in different classrooms.
4th grade students are working on inferencing and text evidence to support their thinking in reading. Students were working in partnership to identify text evidence as they read a portion of their mystery, as Ms. Baker listened in on their discussions. Together, they took their text evidence to quickly jot down if it supported the suspect in an innocent or guilty way. The dialogue and high levels of thinking that were occurring was amazing to watch.
Hart staff and students kicked off the week PJ style.
Hart and Puster Elementary did such a great job tonight at the Fine Arts Festival showcasing their holiday musical performances, both separate and together, under the direction of Ms. McKinley and Ms. Hebert.
4th grade students are applying their writing skills to respond to what they know in science about solutions and mixtures. Kindergarten students earned building a reading city before they immersed themselves in their book boxes.
Thank you PTO for providing our students the opportunity to purchase gifts for their family through the Penguin Patch Store.
This morning our Kindergarten team started their morning analyzing student writing samples to calibrate on the writing progression they are seeing in our Kindergarten writers to help plan next steps to continue to differentiate their instruction with each student through conferring.
