🌞 What an incredible first week of our summer school program: Brainwaves and Sunrays! Our days were filled with curiosity, creativity, and community. From sensory-based learning in writing, math, and science to crafting with seashells and mod podge—every moment was a discovery! 🐚✏️🔍 We explored our 5 senses, built string telephones, tallied data, and even turned snack time into math lessons. 🍧📊 A splash pad adventure taught us teamwork, courage, and that Ms. Tina is the bravest of all! 💦💙 Huge thanks to Mrs. Anne Walker & Youth Health Services for their generous support. Here's to more joyful learning ahead! 🌟 #SummerSchoolMagic #GreatThingsAtPCS #Brainwaves&Sunrays
