Taking inspiration from the story's main character, Camilla Cream, and her love for lima beans, our young learners rolled up their sleeves and planted their very own lima beans! 🌱

Mrs. Godwin’s Math classes had a data day on Tuesday. Groups surveyed their classmates to collect data and then created bar graphs using a scale of 2. They made sure to include a title, labels, the scale, and finally the bars. Lastly, groups created questions that other groups could answer about their collected data.
In Social Studies they began a new unit on geography. Learning cardinal directions was much more fun using play-dough when making a compass rose.
