These students displayed the use of excellent social skills including “teamwork, communication, and cooperation” in their PE class this week.

Last week, students learned about honesty in Character Ed. Second, third, and fourth grade played a game called “Honesty Scoot,” where they had to go around the room determining if the different scenarios on the task cards were examples of honesty. #TEAMBES #MoveMarshall






Our first graders had fun learning about chemical reaction in STEM last week!😄
