Ms. Kristen's first graders were amazed to see a real peacock feather today! 🦚 After noticing the “eyes” in their ABC Museum book, they wondered why the bird’s feathers looked that way. We discovered that the colorful “eyes” are actually a clever defense mechanism to help peacocks stay safe. Hands-on learning SPARKS big curiosity!

Today, Ms. Kristen's class set off on an adventure to Camp Read-A-Lot! 🏕️📚 Our little campers had a blast participating in fun, camping-themed reading and math activities—all from the comfort of their very own campsite tents! From cozy corners to creative learning, we made the most of every moment. We are rolling strong here at Reed Elementary! 🌟🔥
