Mrs. Brecka's 2nd Graders celebrated Thanksgiving by reading the story How to Catch a Turkey. Then, they were challenged to create a maze to get their "turkey" through. They had 20 minutes to build and test. Such creative minds they have!
Here is the Eagle Weekly for the week of November 25-30. Reminder students do not have school this week, so look closely at practice times and leave times. We hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!! Enjoy the time with family and friends!
