We’ve been busy at the Izard County After School Program! Kindergarteners read Christmas in the Barn by Margaret Wise Brown, then got creative by building stables and mangers using various food items (and may have enjoyed a tasty snack, too!). Our 6th graders designed exciting LEGO engineering challenges for their Cougar Buddies and even built motorized robot cars! To top it all off, students had a special visit from a real barn owl in Miss Tabby’s room—what an unforgettable week!
