Happy Holidays from the fourth grade team @DukeCitySD 🎄
Holiday RIASEC party this morning. Learners were wrapping pretend gifts, making holiday cards, building igloos, puzzles, making videos about the holiday, and shopping the Target ad and making a list and coloring.
Today, was my pre student teacher’s last day. She has been phenomenal. We celebrated with donuts. I made her a memory book from this semester with pictures & gave her a teacher planner. The students made her cards. Maddie gave each student a gift.She is going to be missed.
Congratulations Mom ❤️
