4th grade frolic fun🐴Students used their knowledge learned from the ELA book study on the novel “Black Beauty” to identify the items used by the cowboys with the horses.

Today was the annual fourth grade Florida frolic. It was a fun filled day of pioneer games and activities. Stephen Bruner, cowboy, from Indiantown brought his crew and some cattle and taught the children what is what like to rope cattle and see livestock! Thank you to the fourth grade teachers and volunteers that helped make today a great success!

Gifted 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders learned all about adaptations for ocean life and how to care for ocean life with a guest speaker from Florida Oceanographic 🐢🌎❤️ Fun fact - a sea turtle's brain is about the size of a human fist. Even though they have a smaller brain, they have exceptionally amazing instincts. This is one of many ways they are able to survive the challenges they face in the ocean.
