Third Grade collaborating with First Grade on our Community Helpers Project.








First grade got a surprise visit from a few Kokomo Firefighters. We are learning about community helpers.



Team Goad STEM challenge today was to try to save the people from the burning building. Students were given 20 popsicle sticks, 3 pipe cleaners and 10 pieces of tape to make a ladder.






Third graders learned about how our country became united after 9/11. Each student colored a tile which came together to make one big picture. America, with many unique individuals, came together to form one huge support team. Tri-Central Trojans use lifelines and life goals to learn how to do exactly that!



TCE picture day is quickly approaching!

Special speaker for third grade about 9/11 today.




Check out these Pre-K students creating their first paintings in the art room! Students learned that they have to hold their paintbrushes like a ballerina! They practiced gliding their brushes across the paper as the brushes stood on their tippy toes. 🖌️🧑🎨🎨 Small School, Big Results! 💙💛💙

Thank you to Sheriff Tebbe for visiting with our first grade students this past week.




Today some of the third graders discovered that you can research not only with technology, but also by taking a trip to the library!
