Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders have been enjoying their bowling unit in P.E. They have learned how to properly hold and throw a bowling ball and also how to keep score! Plus, is there anything more fun than cosmic bowling?!?!🎳🪩 #TogetherWeROAR #hpsdtigers
Ms. Wilcutt's 1st grade class worked on "Capitalization in the Coffee Shop." This lesson focused on capitalizing first and last names, "coffee shop" etiquette, and adding up money when students "made purchases" at the coffee shop counter. We love a cross-curricular activity and our first graders were LOVING their coffee shop treats!☕🍰 #hpsdtigers #togetherweROAR
