⛵Mrs. Collin's Inventive "Crew" ⛵
3rd graders in Mrs. Collin's class used their problem solving skills & creativity to create an inventions. The "crew" had to figure how to invent something that will allow them to drink fresh water while floating around in a salt water ocean. It was inspiring seeing all the hard work and thought put in to this exercise by our students. There are definitely some future inventors in this class! #FarmerFun #Enjoy
This morning Mrs. Cooper's 5th grade class reviewed Habit 6: Synergize and worked on teamwork as they played Headbands! Each student got a card with a character on it. Students had to rely on their classmates to give them clues to lead them to guessing who their character was. It was a hit and the students are already begging to play again soon!

⛵#ELB21 5th Grade SEL: Shrinking Vessel🦈
5th graders had to use teamwork to figure out how to get the entire group in a rectangle on the ground surrounded by sharks. After much trial and error, they needed a little help from Mr. Littrel to come up with a winning plan. After reflecting on the activity, students felt they could’ve done better by incorporating the following healthy habits: Beginning with a Plan in Mind, Thinking Win-Win and Seeking First to Understand and Then be Understood.
🎈#ELB21 1st Graders Synergizing!🎈

#ELB21 First Things First w/ 1st!
1st grade learned about Habit #3 today: Put First Things First. We made rock jars and learned the importance of prioritizing, time management, and organization. The big rocks represent things that are the most important and urgent (ex: Family, health, school/work). The smaller rocks are things that are important, but not urgent (ex: Watching TV, playing games, talking to friends). The sand is the remaining small stuff (ex: toys and material things). #ENJOY #FarmerFUN

⚽***#ELB21 Kindergarten Crew Having a Ball!***⚽
Our kindergarteners practiced their team work and problem solving skills when trying to pass the ball with their feet to their classmates. The students could not use their hands or letting it touch the ground! This was a challenge but they all worked together and found the most efficient way to pass the ball all the way around the circle. They did so well we thought we would share some pictures with you! #ENJOY #FarmerFUN
