🍪🧪 Last week, our 2nd Grade geologists had a "sweet" lesson on weathering and erosion! Students used cookies to see firsthand how rocks break down and move. It was a delicious way to show Engagement in action! ✍️🌊

💙👓 We saw "Heart Words" in a whole new light today! Love was in the air at Georgetown Primary! Our first-grade Braves brought some extra sparkle to their literacy practice today. Wearing their festive rose-tinted heart glasses, these two scholars worked with our Reading Specialist, Mrs. Chrisman, to master their "Heart Words"—those tricky words we have to learn by heart because they don't always follow the rules! 📖✨❤️

It was wonderful to see our students so engaged and excited about growing their reading skills. What a sweet way to celebrate the season of friendship and learning! 🍭📝
