🫧💙 Bubbles of Confidence for Our Test Takers! 💙🫧

Today, our Kindergarten through 2nd grade Cubs helped send our 3rd–5th grade students into testing with lots of encouragement and support!

Our littlest Cubs lined the playground with handmade signs, bubbles, music, and cheers to encourage our test takers as they walked through. Every 3-5 student even received a piece of bubblegum!

Encouraging signs from our young cubs and staff are posted throughout Rodgers as we work together to build confidence and support our students during EOG testing. We are proud of our Cubs and know they are ready to shine! 🐾✨

🪁🐾 Kites Take Flight in 4th Grade! 🐾🌬️
Our 4th graders learned the science behind how kites fly! Students explored the four forces needed for successful flight (lift, drag, tension, and weight) just like airplanes use. ✈️ Then, they designed and built their own bird kites and put them to the test! What a fun way to bring science to life! 💙🐾
