October Waterford Superheroes! #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash #IgnitingPurpose #WeAreFlashes

This week students have been talking about living and nonliving things. The Cardinals used teamwork and built a robot. It's now their welcome robot by their door. Ask your child if a robot is living or nonliving. #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash #IgnitingPurpose #WeAreFlashes

The Sparrows worked on their alphabet by saying the name of the letter, the sound and made the ASL sign for each one.

On Friday, the Blue Jays talked about the vocabulary words passive and active. Then they did an active activity where they jumped over puddles. #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash #IgnitingPurpose #WeAreFlashes

On Fridays, our ECE students from Franklin Central High School come for their internship. We love when they come! #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash #IgnitingPurpose #WeAreFlashes
