Jay Shideler Elementary

Mrs. K joined in on the fun with First grade in P.E. today!

Our Kindergarten, First and Second grade students loved getting to create, build, and explore in Makerspace this week in the library! We read Rosie Revere, Engineer and put our STEM skills to work, as we explored new tools and materials. In the weeks to come, we will feature a new STEM challenge for all grade levels!
