✨ Paleontologists for a Day! ✨
Our 2nd graders stepped back in time and became real-life paleontologists as part of our reading unit! Inspired by the incredible discovery of Sue Hendrickson, students dove into the world of dinosaurs with hands-on, engaging activities.
They worked together to carefully excavate dinosaur bones and piece together a giant T. rex skeleton 🦖, just like scientists do in the field! Students also had a blast digging for “fossils” in chocolate chip cookies, while practicing patience and precision.
We also put our math and science skills to the test by measuring and making predictions about dinosaur eggs, observing what might happen as they “grew” and changed over time.
It was a day full of curiosity, teamwork, and discovery.

Our PCE Student Council met to reflect on some of their favorite engaging activities from this school year! Our student leaders shared events that made this year memorable that they'd like to see continue in upcoming years. 💬
As an added bonus, students were treated to a behind-the-scenes tour of our school cafeteria, hosted by our amazing café manager, Mrs. Uzar as well as Ms. Williams! 👩🍳 They loved learning how everything runs and gained a new appreciation for the hard work that goes into keeping everyone fueled each day.
We are so proud of our Student Council members for their leadership, enthusiasm, and commitment to making PCE such a wonderful place to learn and grow! 💙
