This week Park students were coding to help the elves get to the presents. They created sequences and loops to run the program.
2nd Graders were on the trail to find clues and learn about private and personal information that is safe or not safe to share on the internet. Students learned we all leave a trail and to think before posting on the internet.

Miss Nancy Busse continues to bring so much joy to the Park Elementary Media Center. Students love hearing and sharing stories as much as she loves telling stories. ❤️
Kindergarten and 1st Graders learned and practiced mouse skills using a fun computer game. Not only do these skills support students’ computer skills, but it helps improve hand-eye coordination and focus. Students showed determination and a positive attitude!
2nd and 3rd Graders learned about the home row and began practicing keyboarding skills. No pecking allowed! Students were impressed on how quickly they remembered where the letters are when they really focused on keeping fingers over the home row.
Ms. Nancy was back for more storytelling fun! This time we shared puppets, nesting dolls, and a felt storyboard. Park students love having Ms. Nancy share her love of folktales from around the world!
Kindergarteners in Mrs. Flatin’s class worked on a STEM challenge to build an alien for the letter A that can stand with 3 legs and 4 cube blocks long.
Park elementary students spent Friday afternoon enjoying stories and
puppets with author, educator, and storyteller, Nancy Busse. We are so

Sisters Naima and Aleycia greet one another when homecoming royalty toured Park. Students made foam fingers and footballs to cheer with at the hoco game!
Students at Park Elementary had a special visitor in the Library Media Center. Local educator, author, and storyteller, Nancy Busse, shared her book, puppets, nesting dolls, and storytelling with us. Students were able to use puppets, hear Nancy's book "Tilly Turtle's Decision," and participate in folktales and other storytelling. Thank you Miss Nancy! We can't wait to see you again!
First graders at Park Elementary showed their Giant PRIDE by painting blue and gold rocks. Look for them hiding around Le Sueur and Henderson. If you discover one, pick it up and enjoy! Go Giants!
