🐾Today our 2nd Grade Cougar Cubs finished their time and money unit! Students completed stations in all four classrooms. One of the stations was a store where students were given money. They had to budget their money to be able to buy the items they wanted. They had to count a mixed collection of coins totaling $2.00.

🐾 BPS loved having Mrs. Moreno and Ms. Duffy’s class visit us today! They delivered Cougar Cafe coffee, fresh lemonade, and baked goods and our staff really appreciated it! One of our favorite moments was Rachel reading Llama Llama Hoppity Hop (in braille!) to Ms. Dillemuth’s kindergarten class. Thank you for such a special visit! 💛

🐾 Yesterday our Fourth Grade students visited Henricus Historical Park.
🐾 Henricus was founded just four years after Jamestown, in 1611.
🐾 Do you know why Jamestown wasn't a good settlement site, what types of animals they raised in those early settlements, or how the English settlers made the rooves on their houses? Ask a Fourth Grade student what they are learning in Virginia Studies and you might learn something too!
