**5th Grade Idiom Day: Unleashing Creativity Through Language!**
Today, our 5th-grade students experienced the fun and creativity of Idiom Day, where they dove into the colorful world of idioms! This special day was designed to help students understand and appreciate figurative language, making learning both engaging and memorable.
**What is Idiom Day?**
Idiom Day is a celebration of idiomatic expressions—those quirky phrases that mean something different than their literal interpretation. From “raining cats and dogs” to “barking up the wrong tree,” idioms add flavor to our language. The goal of this event was to enhance students' linguistic skills and encourage them to think outside the box.
The book fair has arrived, and we are set up and ready for business! Students may shop Monday, March3 through Thursday, March 6. We have so many cool books, pens, journals, and more! Come check it out! Proceeds help purchase new books for our school library! 📚 #shine

Also, limit sugary drinks or caffeine for children, their bodies do not need it, and it often affects their mood or behavior.

Boredom- Kids don't like to be bored, and it's easy to hand them a screen to buy you time and peace. However, boredom is key to their development. It encourages them to be creative and use their imagination. Ensure your child has unstructured, independent time each day.
