It's beginning to look a LOT like Christmas!

This week has been so busy at the Creek.  Students have been learning, reading, writing, math and doing science experiments.   And what could top off a week in December but SNOW!






Nothing like a "whole school recess" to catch the snow before it melts.



On Friday, fifth grade had Hands-on Science with Mr. Rice.  Thank you so much, Mr. Rice for continuing to return to RCE to teach Hands-on Science.  This week fifth grade tacked a dissection!

Fourth Grade performed The Nutcracker.  Each year the students put a little twist on the program, and this class followed the pattern.  This group of students did an outstanding job!
























































The performances were magnificent.  The dances we outstanding.  Thank you to the Fine Arts Team and the PTA moms who worked so hard for this production!

The amazing Student Council is putting on the final touches for their holiday project.  They have worked hard and I hope the project is well received!  They are some of the most enthusiastic hardworking students at RCE....and they always have an idea for the next project.  Love these special students!







The whole week was Hour of Code at RCE.  Some of the students took advantage of the programs in the library.  Hopefully, the students enjoyed learning about coding.  If you would like to know more Hour of Code - go to https://hourofcode.com/us   https://code.org/    https://studio.code.org/s/course1/stage/4/puzzle/1   http://partners.disney.com/hour-of-code/wayfinding-with-code?cds    The app Bloxels allows you to design video games through coding.  I have tons of books in the library on coding as well.  
Here are some photos from our Hour of Code in the library:



























Mrs. Hiner's First Grade class had a "Meet the Author" day.  How fun to be able to share your writing with your classmates and family!





Mrs. Smith's PreK class has been passing out JOY!  They are learning about giving instead of receiving...what a good lesson for a PreK child to learn.



In December, the teachers have a door decorating competition.  This year's doors:














































Next week will be a fun week - Career Day - Spirit Rally - Class Parties - and----1/2 day on Friday.
It's great to be a Roadrunner!
