We are “swimming into a good book” with PARP! Every classroom has been diving into our ocean theme curriculum! #PARP @LicariMrs @VassarRoad @VassarKinryPTA

No bones about it, the octopus took the lead in the Invertebrate Rumble - Jellyfish vs. Octopus!

Who's ready to rumble.... ocean style!?? Our sea creatures are going head to head to find out the favorite of Vassar Road! Whose fun facts and awesome features are the greatest?!? All grades Prek-2 are researching, learning, and voting in the library!

Very excited to unveil the new laminator at Vassar Road thanks to the generosity of the Vassar-Kinry PTA! @VassarKinryPTA @VassarRoad @ASchout10

Build Day

Balloons over Broadway: Mrs. Licari’s 2nd graders designed and built parade floats and balloons. @LicariMrs

The design process from research to idea sketch to build diagram to successful prototype: 2nd graders worked collaboratively to design a book character balloon. Balloons had to be a familiar book character for their audience and appear to float.
