JOYFUL LEARNING IN THE MEDIA CENTER!
Our General Greene Gators are diving into fun STEM challenges that blend science themes with both fiction and non-fiction books from our school library collection. For example, some of the upper-grade students crafted corn husk dolls from paper bags to share with our K-2 friends while exploring Native American history. Meanwhile, our K-2 students are getting hands-on by making fossils out of Play Doh and pasta after enjoying the NC Book Award Nominee, "How Dinosaurs Went Extinct: A Safety Guide." We're always on the lookout for exciting new ways to spark our students' curiosity with science and stories!

FLEX BENEFITS
Hey everyone! Mrs. Collins is excited to offer extra STEM lessons for K-5 students during Flex Week, which happens every other week. She's been teaming up with classroom teachers to create fun and engaging STEM challenges that align with what the kids are already learning. So far, they've enjoyed making Color Wheel Spinners in Kindergarten, exploring drawbridges and levers in second grade, discovering the cultural significance of pumpkins, and even crafting jug face clay mugs while learning about Seagrove pottery's impact on communities and trade in third grade. There are so many exciting activities designed to spark curiosity and boost those problem-solving skills!
