🧬🐤 Battle of the Beaks! 🐤🧬
Last week, our Biology I students traveled (figuratively!) to the Galápagos Islands to explore evolution in action with the Darwin Beak Lab! Using tweezers, clothespins, plastic forks, and binder clips as their “beaks,” students discovered how different bird beaks are adapted to specific food sources—just like Darwin observed! 🍽️
Their "bird food"? A wild buffet of rubber bands, toothpicks, pinto beans, macaroni, and paper clips! 😄 Students rotated through beaks and food sources, collecting data along the way, then competed as bird groups to grab as much food as possible in a survival-style challenge. 💪📊
The activity wrapped up with graphing, analyzing their findings, and answering reflection questions to bring it all together. Hands-on learning meets science fun—just the way we like it! 🧠✨

Just a friendly reminder...Elementary MAP testing begins this week. Check the flyer for specific dates, grades, and content areas. Additionally, double check with your student to ensure they have head phones for use during testing.
Tomorrow we are kicking off testing week with a team dress-up day! We invite students to wear their favorite sports team attire as we prepare to "knock the test out of the park!"
Thank you to everyone who donated to our recent elementary fundraiser! We were able to raise enough funds to purchase an additional updated, interactive board for an elementary classroom. With your help, this year, we have been able to purchase 4 of the 6 interactive boards for our classrooms! We couldn't have done it without your help!! Thanks again!
Summer school? Yes, please!! Leeton Elementary will host summer school this year. Dates and information are included in the flyer. Check it out for details!
Reminder, Leeton R-X School District will be closed Friday, April 18th-Monday, April 21st. There will NOT be Monday club or B&G club on April 21st. School resumes normal hours on Tuesday, April 22nd.
Power up! Yesterday's Book Blast Treasure Chest winner was Grayson Bond! And today's winner was Teegan Dozler Congratulations!
Did you know that Book Blast contributions help ensure all our students receive books? After your student earns all 10 books from the book list, additional contributions help provide more books for all our students, classrooms, and the library. Your involvement makes a world of difference!
