The secret is out! For the past two weeks, Westfall FFA and our 2nd-grade classes have been working together on a special gift for their loved ones: SNOWMAN STICKS! Each stick was carefully measured to each student's height, cut, sanded, and painted to create a snowman decoration for their families. What a unique Christmas keepsake!
Our Physical Education Encore has introduced a new game—GAGA BALL! Gaga Ball is played in our epic “pit,” with a simple goal: smack the ball towards your opponents’ legs (on or below the knee) to get them out. If you get hit, you’re out—even if the ball bounces off the wall!
The game continues until only one player is left standing in the pit... and they are the ultimate Gaga Ball champion! Who’s ready to dodge, duck, and dive to stay in the game? Let the fun begin!
Our third-grade classes have been busy exploring how families in countries such as Greece, Mexico, Norway, and the Philippines celebrate the holidays through unique traditions and delicious recipes!
From Greece’s festive cookies, Kourabiedes, to the Philippines’ great midnight feast, Noche Buena, our students are learning so much about the rich cultural traditions that make this time of year so special around the globe.
It’s been a joyous, fun-filled journey, and we’ve been so excited to share these amazing traditions with our students.
