Preschool students enjoyed a trip to Fire Station 1 in Marion! Here they learned what firefighters do in the community and when they are back at the station. Preschoolers got to watch fire engines arriving back at the station and a firefighter putting on all his safety gear. #lesinspire #misdinspire

Second graders have been studying Westward Expansion during their CKLA Knowledge block. They heard stories about the pioneers traveling the Oregon Trail 🐴, Native Americans being forced to move from their homes, how inventions like the steamboat and transcontinental railroad 🚂 impacted life, and about the buffalo 🦬 that lived in the area. This week students took the summaries and pictures they’ve created and designed “quilts” to share their stories. Want to learn more about Westward Expansion? Ask your favorite second grade expert! ☺️
