Bonner School District #14

Today we learned about the 4 forces on an aircraft in flight (gravity, lift, thrust and drag) and we recreated Leonardo DaVinci’s parachute and tested our designs with different weights by dropping them off the playground. We also did an experiment to demonstrate how surface area affects lift. Then we began constructing paper airplanes of different weights. We weighed them and next week we will calculate the average distance by gram and compare across the class while also learning about controls in the cockpit and measuring wind shear.

Sending love from TK to kick off February! ❤️

Bonner 5th graders wrote & published a book of folktales! They are so proud of their effort and creativity. Ask a 5th grader if they will share their story with you! :)

Here is a cute video of 5C students singing a song about the continents! This class LOVES singing, and they've been begging to sing this song every day for the past week. Today we decided to put together a performance and shared it with Mr. Hungate before band!

The Library is a busy place! We find ways to explore beyond books. Here are some of the other things students have chosen to work on as they interact with their peers.

In TK, we play games to help students learn simple addition.

Read, write, and run! Student's in Mrs. Vogel's first grade were thrilled to hear they could run in the classroom yesterday to complete a reading relay. They practiced reading, writing, sorting, teamwork, and organization while getting some exercise, too!

Dear Bonner Families,

Our school participates in a tax-incentive giving program that allows individuals to donate to support student learning. Contributions made through this program qualify you for a state tax credit.
To learn more about how this program works, please watch the short video attached from Superintendent Howard, which provides a helpful overview of the tax incentive giving opportunity and how it supports our school.

With gratitude,
Principal Andres
