Mrs. Jacobs's Bio II classes are participating in a fun competition put together by Arizona State University called March Mammal Madness. This is the eleventh year for this tournament. If you've ever completed a March Madness bracket for college basketball, it works very much the same way. However, these are imaginary battles between animals. Students are asked to research the animals in the tournament the same as a scout would research athletes in order to complete a Google Slides presentation. Students fill out brackets with this knowledge. We watch YouTube videos made by ASU to get our updates. Mrs. Jacobs offers a cash prize to the top three Bio II students with the best scores. Former students are invited to fill out brackets and they have been showing up for redemption from year's past. This is such an exciting event every year!
Here is a Facebook link to learn more!

CES SIGN LANGUAGE CLUB -
This year CES started our first ever sign language club! The club was inspired by one of our students who uses American Sign Language as their primary language. We saw the need for other children to learn ASL to communicate and connect with our student, so we put the word out to see who would be interested, and the response was so overwhelming that we had to split it up into two sessions: grades 3-5 and PK-2.
Here is the "Blue Group" that won the most points for returning homework each week! They learned to sign colors, numbers, the alphabet, household items, opposites, occupations and much more! Way to go Blue Group!!
