HALLOWEEN FUN in FOURTH!
Our 4th-grade students got a hands-on history lesson this week! To understand primary sources, students were given a powerful task: to analyze authentic family documents (birth certificates, census records, ship manifests, and handwritten documents) to trace a portion of Mrs. Richmond's family history.
This engaging, project-based lesson transformed our classroom into an historical archive! The students weren't just reading history; they were doing history, meticulously examining artifacts to piece together a family tree. It was a powerful reminder that history isn't just in books—it's in the personal stories and documents that connect us all. Great work, young historians!
It was a spooktacular day in third grade! From spooky-good math and silly stories to a walk-around quiz about candy, jack-o-lanterns, and creatures (oh my!), and plenty of costume and party fun – thrills were in full swing! 🎃👻
It was a great day in 5th grade! We started our day by joining the 6th grade in a potion making science investigation. Thanks, Mrs. Farbo, for inviting us! Halloween games, pumpkin decorating, and a costume party made for an enjoyable time- Happy Halloween!
Lady Refiners Win
The Lady Refiners defeated St. Patrick's Academy in 5 sets! They advance to play tomorrow at 2pm. With today's victory, they will advance to the Divisional Volleyball Tournament next week in Cascade. Congrats Lady Refiners!
Happy Halloween from Sunburst Elementary!
Halloween Costume Parade & Parties
The Elementary Halloween Costume Parade will begin at 1:30pm today. Students in Kindergarten-6th grade will parade through the elementary and high school building (a bus will transport them between the two). A great picture taking opportunity will be available in the elementary cafeteria. Thank you to everyone who contributed treats and goodies for the Halloween parties!

District VB Tourney

Lady Refiners Advance
The Lady Refiners volleyball team defeated Augusta in 3 sets to advance and play tonight 30 minutes after the 6pm match (estimate of 7:30-8).
Good luck Lady Refiners!
Fourth grade finished writing narrative stories and had a "Story Fest" to enjoy reading each other's work. Of course, we listened to coffee shop jazz music and drank a warm beverage to really set the mood.
To learn more about the Fur Trade, a student brought in a few different furs to feel, and we read the picture book, "The Flower Beadwork People". The students had fun dressing Mrs. Nagy up in the furs! We then designed our own flower beadwork on a moccasin craft.
K-6 teachers have been implementing an awesome new writing curriculum with students, and today, 4th grade came to share some special things with 1st grade! Both classes have learned about barebones sentences and the importance of their structure. They are the foundation and the building blocks to create more sophisticated sentences as students advance in their writing skills. The 4th grade students summarized some fun Halloween stories completely in barebones sentences and then read these stories to the 1st graders. Both classes enjoyed spending time together!
Tourney Time
Good luck to the Lady Refiners as they open tournament play vs. Augusta today at 2pm in Great Falls at St. Patrick's Academy.
