3rd graders in Ms. Boltz and Mrs. McAuley’s class boarded a plane today and headed for a tour of Ireland! They compared and contrasted governments, talked about land forms, climate, wildlife, culture and traditions. All things that they have been learning in reading, science and social studies. They were even served a mid-flight snack and drink!

The leprechaun traps have been set! ☘️☘️
The PreK, kindergarten, and 1st graders have been hard at work constructing the nifty traps, complete with shiny coins to lure the leprechaun in. 😉
