First grade ended our unit on The History of the Earth with a fossil and gem dig as well as making our own "fossils" out of clay. During this unit, we also learned about the layers of the Earth, volcanoes and geysers, and how dinosaurs once ruled the Earth. They had so much fun being paleontologists and geologists during this unit!

Third grade ended our Light & Sound unit with an Escape Room. Students had to listen carefully to guess the pitch, guess the sound, read secret messages with mirrors, use magnifying glasses, and read with invisible ink. Such a fun way to wrap up all that they had learned!

Kindergarten spent several weeks learning all about Native Americans and their life many years ago. They spent a lot of time learning all about the resources found among the land including the many uses of buffalo. We made buffalo vests and teepees.

The 1st grade classes at West View are learning all about space and the solar system. This week we learned about cycles of the moon. We used Oreos to model the different moon phases. They loved using cookies, especially since they got to snack on the extras!
