The fun continued with our 2nd graders during **Breakfast of Champions**, where the athletes enjoyed breakfast, visited, and played games with our students!
What a great morning of Tornado pride, smiles, and memories! A huge thank you to our THS senior athletes for spending time with our youngest Tornadoes! 💜💛

🧈 A Little Taste of History! 🧈
To end the week, Miss Johnson's class took a step back in time. They learned how butter was made the old-fashioned way during science! The little scientists shook, mixed, and watched cream transform into butter. Bonus! They got to taste their homemade butter!

Mrs. Wagner's science classes were asked to help the alleycats. The allicats are in a unique bowling competition. In this competition, the competitors can change, not only the weight of the bowling ball, but they can also change the slope of the alley. Students constructed a scale model of the setup, then tested using heavy golf balls and light practice golf balls. After measuring and calculating the average distance each ball moved the pins. Students then determined which set up would be best for the alleycats to use during the competition. Ryleigh Settle said, This activity helped me understand kinetic and potential energy." Pictured are students completing the lab activity.

To celebrate Deaf Awareness Month, Miss Johnson's 4th grade class had a VERY special guest, Sophia Yeazle, join them for a wonderful visit! Sophia signed a book while Miss Johnson read it aloud, and everyone absolutely loved the experience. 💙
The whole class learned so much about Deaf culture and communication, and they even had fun learning a few new signs that they can use in our everyday lives! What a special and meaningful experience for everyone! 🤟
