  • Communication
  • Problem-solving
  • Trust-building 
  • Risk-taking

First-graders in Ms. Sardone's class had a terrific start to Woodward Parkways "Week of Thanks" with reading The Gratitude Jar by Katrina Liu.

This beautiful story highlights the importance of being grateful for what you have and the people around you. Each student shared one special thing and wrote it on a colorful strip for the classroom Gratitude Jar. Ms. Sardone will read these messages of gratitude throughout the year to help build happiness and unity in the classroom.

Students spent the day mastering our moves and secretly learning some amazing STEM! From tackling centripetal force on the turns to understanding rolling friction, science was definitely in motion!
