Side by Side Nutrition Classes

Through programming sponsored by Ms. Sheila Karpan, members of our community recently completed the 'Side by Side Nutrition Class" sponsored by Colorado Matters. This winter, we had 10 adults, and 8 students participate in the course.

As stated on its website: "With the help of volunteer culinary and nutrition experts, Cooking Matters course participants learn how to select nutritious and low-cost ingredients and prepare them in ways that provide the best nourishment possible to their families. Cooking Matters is nationally sponsored by the ConAgra Foods® Foundation and Walmart." http://cookingmatters.org/

Congratulations to all of our families that took time to participate in this wonderful program!

Celebrating 100 Days of School

SOME OF OUR COLLECTIONS

 MAKING A NECKLACE OUT OF 100 BEADS

Today was the 100th Day of School!  Every day during calendar time, the first graders have been counting the days of school.  Some of the fun activities the students did included making a necklace out of 100 beads, and coloring a 100 hundreds chart with a pattern of their choice.  They also brought in their collections of 100 items.  Some of the collections included shells, stickers, marshmallows, cereal, and Popsicle sticks. Now we are counting down the days until we are ready for second grade.
