Students chose specific habitats to investigate for their projects. Based on their research, the students constructed a diorama. The second graders with the top three winning dioramas were:
1st place: Caroline Taylor
2nd place: Logan Burkhart
3rd place: Eli Key
Elfalfa has been busy visiting our students at Harlan Elementary. He made it to the science lab during the 3rd & 4th grade classes and brought candy canes and sugar cookies to give to the students. Next, he visited the gym and brought paper snowballs for a friendly snowball fight! He also brought a snack for the kids to have at the end of class! Elfalfa sent a friendly paper airplane straight to Mrs. Posey’s office today to announce his departure back to The North Pole. We will miss him until we see him again next year!
