A Future Principal



I think we have a future Mr. Singer on our hands.



Exploring the Common Core

Teachers gathered for a half day of job-embedded professional development to learn more about the Language Arts College and Career Ready Standards.  Kim Warner, our reading coach, led the discussions.  Pictured here are our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade teachers.

A Soggy Curriculum Night

Families braved the wet and soggy weather conditions to take a look at the learning taking place in our school.  The students were so excited to show off for their parents - they even tried to teach them a new game or strategy or show them how they started their day on the Nook.

Building Simple Machines

Mrs. Giles' third grade class is building simple machines using Legos.

It takes some planning...

...and problem solving

...and cooperation

...to make these levers, pulleys, or wheels and axle.

Learning can be fun!

Some of the finished products!

Jump Rope For Heart

On your mark, get set, JUMP!

Thanks to you, Green Valley collected over $1,200 for the
American Heart Association!

Our winners were announced on Broadcast today.  I think they are all in shock!



Our winners after their parents surprised them in the lobby.
Congratulations - We are proud of you!



Hoover Robotics Competition

Green Valley's RoboGators competed at Trace Crossings Elementary for the Hoover Robotics Competition on Saturday, February 2.  It was not about the competition or winning, but about learning, collaboration, problem-solving and teamwork.  Below is a look at our day.

Keeping busy before the start, then listening to instructions.

Organizing a game plan

Programming

Testing and problem solving

One of the many tasks - following a black line.

A great group of RoboGators

ABC, it's easy as 1, 2, 3

Mrs. Watts' class invited  parents to share their finished ABC Books...

...and eat donuts!

Someone has the giggles!
