Mrs. Porter’s third grade class learned all about the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. They read about the famous German American puppeteer, Tony Sarg. Then they designed their own balloon puppets for the Maple Ridge Thanksgiving Day Parade!

On Tuesday afternoon we had our 8th Annual Maple Ridge Gobble Off! One representative from each class came down to the office to gobble over the intercom. Students in their classrooms voted for their favorites. This is a well-loved tradition at our school! Congratulations to our winners who each took home a turkey for their family's Thanksgiving dinner. 1st place: Daxton Skinner, 2nd place: Rohan McGary, 3rd place: Nolan Peterson.

Students in Mrs. Sanders' fourth grade class recently read about a famous collage artist. They used various mediums to create their own collage art and displayed their masterpieces in the hall.

Students in Mrs. Mathew's fourth grade had fun practicing math skills while playing a fun game called "Emoji Island."

4th graders in Mrs. Sanders’ class learned about energy, force and mass by bowling with water bottles and various sized balls. They recorded their data and shared their findings with their classmates.
