The preschoolers and kindergarteners are learning about penguins. I drew a life size emperor penguin and then outlined each student to compare their sizes to the penguin's size. We found out a few of them are similar in size to the emperor penguin.
Second grade made our own mountain ranges and investigated what happens when it rains!

The students were very excited when they were able to use the new playground equipment. We had a ribbon cutting ceremony and were able to thank Mr. Robinson, Donnie, and Jaydee for all they did to get it ready and make sure the inspection was done, so it could be used. We are very fortunate to have people who work so hard to make sure our students are taken care of and have things to enjoy.
Here are the plans for our next junior high basketball games. We will be traveling to Briggsdale tomorrow January 12th. With the covid, restrictions no parents or fans will be allowed to watch the game in person. The North Central League is following covid protocol guidelines put forth by CHSAA and CDPHE to create and maintain a safe environment for your athlete to compete in. We will leave the school at 3:10 P.M. and will return to Pawnee between 6:30 and 7:00 P.M. We will not be allowed to use locker rooms so the players will put their uniforms on at school and wear them to the game. If your student has sweats that they can wear over their uniform I would encourage them to bring them. We will have water and snacks for them on the bus. If you have any questions please contact me at the school. The game will be live streamed and can be viewed at the following link. https://www.facebook.com/Briggsdale-Athletics-101081301957360/?view_public_for=101081301957360 John Foster
