Library classes donβt officially begin until Monday, but Mrs. McCollumβs 5th grade homeroom got an early visit this afternoon! πβ¨
They were the FIRST class to correctly answer our very first Wonder Wednesday challenge on Rangers Live and earned 30 minutes of free time in the library! They played, created, explored and enjoyed a little well-earned fun to end the week.
We loved seeing how excited our Rangers were to participate in this new segment on morning announcementsβand we canβt wait to see which class answers the next Wonder Wednesday! π
Way to go, Mrs. McCollumβs class!
