๐โจ Parts of Speech Sort Fun! โจ๐
Mrs. Tobbeโs 3rd graders took on Reading Standard L.3.1a by working together to sort words into the correct parts of speech. ๐ก๐ค Students explained their thinking, defended their choices, and collaborated as a team to get it just right. ๐
One student summed it up perfectly: โWe make a really great team.โ ๐
These Active Collaborators and Effective Communicators showed us what it means to Love. Learn. Lead. at SCES! ๐ป๐๐ซ
๐๐ฉโ๐ซ Distributive Doctors in Action! ๐จโ๐ซ๐
Mrs. Ousleyโs class put on their โdoctor coatsโ today and got hands-on with the Distributive Property! ๐ง ๐ก Using colorful play dough, these mathematicians โdissectedโ multiplication problems to see how they can be broken apart, rearranged, and solved in new ways. ๐จโโ๏ธ
Our Problem Solvers and Empowered Learners had a blast bringing math to life while building a deeper understanding. ๐๐

Today at 3:51 pm, the administration of Spencer County Elementary School was made aware of a potential threat. It was reported to the Taylorsville Police Department that two adults engaged in a vigorous discussion online in which a potential threat against the school was made.
Upon receiving that report, the Taylorsville Police Department coordinated with their partners at the Spencer County Sheriff's Office to ensure the safety of students during the rest of the dismissal period.
At this time, local law enforcement continues to work all leads and will have an active presence all day tomorrow on campus.
