Week eight followed curiosity about the living world. Primary explored recycling, decomposition, and ants β with early fractions woven into equal sharing; lower elementary opened October units in subtraction, phonics, flag symbolism, and shape painting; upper elementary stretched fractions, similes, and symmetry portraits β then the whole school closed with Wizard Academy Field Friday and a hearty chili cook-along.
Primary, lower elementary, and upper elementary each turned Earth-care questions into math, literacy, art, cooking, and community connections.
