Place value isn’t spooky! 💀 #teammcps #lighttheway

All set up and ready to go for tomorrow’s haunted house #classroomtransformation #teammcps

We are loving @areynoldsbooks Creepy Tales collections. Our students flipped over our costumes this morning! #TeamMCPS #ReadingIsFun MCPS Carteret County Public School System

Alexa, change our classroom from a spooky haunted house to a fiesta for Day of the Dead. #classroomtransformation #dayofthedead

We went on a virtual field trip to Mexico, we tried authentic Pan de Muerto, and we made our own Papel Picados. Day one of #dayofthedead is in the books. 🙌 #teammcps #lighttheway

These kids have been working hard all morning on their shoebox alters. I can’t wait to see the finished product. #dayofthedead #DiaDeLosMuertos #teammcps #lighttheway
