Dr. Sparlin Visits Prairie Point Elementary School

 

Dr. Sparlin enjoyed another great visit to one of our amazing elementary schools, Prairie Point Elementary, on December 8.

He started the visit greeted by ALL Prairie Point kindergartens sitting politely waiting for him to arrive to read to them. After introductions were made, he read to them "We're all Wonders". Afterwards, some of the students shared what they felt made them wonders, unique, and special.

Next, Dr. Sparlin was off to visit 3rd grade to participate in their extra recess period for the day. He visited three classrooms and engaged in a fun game of tic-tac-toe, watched an intense card game of War, and cheered on students playing basketball.

After the recess, Dr. Sparlin headed to a 5th grade classroom and read the book "Uncles & Antlers" who all come together yearly for a special purpose. The last stop was to a 1st grade class participating in Art. The students were working on art projects based off the book "Elmer".
