A little friendly competition and a whole lot of learning!
Our kindergarten students got to release some energy while practicing their number recognition with a fun number game! When the teacher called out a number, students raced to be the first to find and slap the correct one before their classmates.

Learning is better when it’s hands-on! Our Kindergarten students are having fun exploring different classroom stations while building skills, confidence, and a love for learning! #ThisISKingSchool







We are getting ready for the PACER test in Physical Education!



4th graders took on the Impossible Tower Challenge and quickly learned that building the tallest tower isn’t as easy as it looks! They worked together, tried new ideas, watched a few towers tumble, and learned that failure is just part of the process. 💪🧠
Lots of teamwork, problem-solving, perseverance, and plenty of laughs! ❤️

What is one part of Bridges math 2nd grade students enjoy..... WORK PLACES! Work Places are a part of math instruction in all grades at King! In the early days of the new year, students explore the "math tools" (manipulatives) that will be used in the work places. These 2nd grade students have "math talk guides" at their groups to start math discussions!
