Native American Day is typically the 4th Friday in September. Our fifth graders celebrated by reading a creation story, drinking tea, and making tipis. The students have studied and written about how the Nez Perce used their natural resources for food/drink and shelter. Students were surprised to find out that the tea we drink today comes from the same plants Native Americans used hundreds of years ago. We love this hands-on learning experience! 🪘🦬🍵🪶🦅
We are getting excited about the Bains Fun Run taking place next Tuesday here at Bains! This Sunday will be the last day for collecting donations.
