Mrs. Lansford's 7th grade English Class created a tree of good qualities... a good qualitTREE 🌳 if you would 😉 On each piece of bark 🤎 (or brown paper) the students wrote qualities they value in a friendship, while on the leaves 💚 (green paper) they wrote names of people in their lives that exhibit these good qualities. 🌳🌿☀️🪶 With the school year coming to an end, and the students being told they could choose ANY people in their lives, it was inspiring to see how many students wrote the names of their classmates on the leaves. 🩵😎 Way to SOAR, Hawkeye students.

🦉🔍 Our young scientists are delving into the fascinating world of owl pellets! By examining these natural treasures, students are uncovering the secrets of energy transfer within an ecosystem. Each pellet tells a story of what the owls have eaten, helping us understand predator-prey relationships and the flow of energy from one organism to another. Learning science hands-on is the best way to bring these concepts to life!
