Second Graders Preparing for Junior First Lego league.

Second graders are researching honey bee habitats and looking at how various animals face similar threats to the honey bee. They decided to research about honey badgers. One of the biggest threats that many animals face is human recklessness. In preparation for the tournament, students are writing programs and designing projects that depict the habitat they are researching using the Lego Wedo kits.

Fourth Graders compete in FLL tournament

Congratulations to our fourth graders for their hard work and participation in the 2016 FIRST Lego League competition at Brittany Woods middle school in University City! 

Fourth Graders Need Your Help!

Looking for a great way to get some exercise while helping out our Ladue elementary students and local animal rescue organizations? It's free, it's easy, all you have to do is download a free app, walk by yourself, walk with friends or walk with your dogs. The app will keep track of your miles and on November 4th, let me know how far you walked. The kids will add your name to the back of their display board for their competition! For more information, check out their project by clicking on the link below...
