Elementary teacher Ms. Whitford recently took her students on a field trip to Benson’s Dairy Bar! Students used their verbal skills to order their own ice cream and practiced their counting to pay for their ice cream treats! 🍨What a sweet adventure! 🍦 Shout out to Benson’s for opening early for the students, and thank you for sharing, Ms. Whitford! 🐾To see more photos, head on over to our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/HoosickFallsCentral/

Elementary teacher Mrs. Cross has another “community integration field trip” to share! These trips allow students to explore some of the community helper roles they have been learning about in the classroom. Students visited the laundry mat in the Village! The kiddos made change, put coins into the washer, poured detergent, and watched the laundry spin! They walked to the store and purchased a drink, and then returned when the wash was done and put the blankets into the dryer! They did a great job, and they had an awesome time out in the community! Thanks for sharing, Mrs. Cross! (To see more pictures, head on over to our Facebook page.)

Thank you to the Curtis Lumber employees and our HFCS teachers and staff who helped make this project possible!

🦖Last week, second graders had their annual Dinosaur Museum Day! Students chose a dinosaur to research, made a report in school, and then continued the learning at home and created a presentation. Elementary students from the other grades had the chance to come through the "Museum" and hear from the students about their projects, and then friends and families got to join in the fun, too. Great job to the second-grade team, and thanks for sharing your photos! Dino Day is always a roaring success!🦕(To see all the pictures, head on over to our Facebook page! https://www.facebook.com/HoosickFallsCentral/)
