Vincent's Voters

This past week Ms. Vincent's class discussed the importance of becoming an informed voter before we went to the polls for the Mock Election! There are a lot of big issues that help a voter decide who they want to vote for! The kids worked in groups to create posters for issues such as education and the economy that showed each candidate's beliefs and plans for the issue! Next each group presented their poster and answered their classmates' questions! 

Vocabulary Parade

On Halloween the fourth grade and Mrs. Harrralson's kindergarten class participated in the inaugural  Vocabulary Parade! Kids dressed up as a vocabulary word and then got to share their definition and rational behind their costume with one another! The kids had a blast and really were creative with their costumes! Here is Ms. Coomes' class with their fryar model presentation behind them! They worked very hard on these amazing presentations!
