Mrs. Carroll's classes are taking teamwork to the next level! 🌟 First, they brainstormed what effective group work should look like. Then, they put their ideas into practice by collaboratively building images with pattern blocks and solving challenging questions together.
It's amazing to see students not only discussing the importance of teamwork but also actively applying those principles. 💡#teamworkmakesthedreamwork #BerryShoalsBees #WeAreD5






Last week, first graders in Ms. Weber’s class read the story “Butterflies on the First Day of School”. They then created their own butterfly finger puppets so they could watch their nerves flutter away! #BerryShoalsBees #firstgrade


📚✨ Our 3rd graders are on a mission this week: boosting their reading and writing stamina! 💪 #BerryShoalsBees #WeAreD5 #readingtime











Kindergarten joy! 🎉 Our little ones are loving their brand-new playground and equipment during their recess time. What a fantastic start to the school year! #BerryShoalsBees #WeAreD5 #kindergarten

Yesterday, our 6th grade Honor Band students travelled to Fountain Inn High School to perform for the SCBDA Concert Performance Assessment. This event includes a stage performance of 3 prepared pieces as well as a sight reading piece that they have never seen before! Our students received an overall rating of SUPERIOR at this event!
