Miss Kobelak's class finished the school year with a fun social studies project! Each group of students researched a decade from 1900 to 2000, then presented their information to the class. We learned about the important events and inventions from each decade, as well as fashion, trends, slang, and how much things costed at the time (the students were really surprised to see how much prices have changed over the years!). We also got to listen to great music throughout the decades. We learned so much and had a lot of fun!
Mrs. Witherspoon's class and Miss Kobelak's class enjoyed some exercise and lovely spring weather during their hike on the nature trail this morning!

Kindergarten learned how to play GO FISH in KIP this month thanks to the amazing helpers in Miss Kobelak’s 5th grade class.
First Grade celebrated C day by Camping out in our rooms. We also had a visit from the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo where we learned about different animal coverings and got to meet 3 of their animals!
First Grade ABC Countdown. Today was letter B, Bubble Day! We had a blast learning about how bubbles work, and then getting to blow some bubbles outside!
Students in Miss Kobelak's class created their own Universe in a Box today! They learned about constellations and the Universe in a Box demonstrates why we see different stars depending on the season. The box shows that when the earth rotates, it faces different sides of the universe, which is why we see different constellations throughout the year. The students were excited to take their boxes home and show what they learned!
