Our 6th graders have been busy this fall — diving into math with factors and equations, exploring Minnesota’s early history and petroglyphs in social studies, and even doing some “bug tasting” inspired by Touching Spirit Bear! 🐜📚
Students are also learning about responsibility and budgeting through our ClassBank classroom economy — great real-world skills in action!
Way to go, 6th graders! Keep up the awesome work! 💚🖤 #WaubunElementary #ThunderbirdPride
