In the Coho class, we write class poems several times a month, pumpkins inspired one of our October poems.
Jac-O-Lanterns are … fun, spooky, awesome, hilarious, lighting up, pointy teeth, carved, squishy, exploding orange, scary, pretty, filled with seeds.

This has been a fantastic fall for adventure and learning in the Raven’s class. Here is most of the class exploring a place called the lollipop in Seahurst.
The Chinook Class visited the Living Computer Museum in SoDo to explore their interactive gallery of computers, robotics, digital art, internet of things, virtual reality and more. Students worked with programming in Basic, played chess with a computer and got to make card board computers to better understand the parts of a computer. Students learned about what makes something a computer – input, processing, memory and output! Just like our brains!
The Kokanee class had a full day at the south beach at Seahurst expanding our knowledge of how birds and mammals make preparations for the fall to later thrive in the winter. Our focus was on the tree squirrel – leading our work into making a kid-size drey (squirrel nest). It wasn’t possible to put it in the tree, but many kids took to climbing to pretend they were in their drey. There was also time to enjoy roasting apples, making charcoal pencils for drawing and an awesome game of Cross the River.
The Chinook Class practiced their naturalist skills at Seahurst Park’s south beach and forest edge, giving students an opportunity to identify and locate plants and trees. We also took time to review journaling – an important way we chart and record findings.
