On Monday November 14, 2011 in recognition of American Education Week we had the privilege to have a school board member Kevin Keller read the book “The Three Javelinas” to our 2nd and 3rd grade ELL students   The children enjoyed listening to the story and to participate in reading the coyote’s part ” I’ll huff and puff and blow your house in.” This is always a great experience for our students to have a a community member share their love of reading!

On Friday November 18, 2011 Student Athletes from UNL came to talk to our 2nd and 3rd graders about the importance of exercising our bodies as well as our minds. They  talked about the importance of eating the right foods to make our bodies strong. The students shared with them the exercises that they do each day.
