First grade got a suprise visitor today! Ms. Helen brought in her bearded dragon to share with the students. First grade has been working on a unit about creature features. It was so fun for students to see a real creature and to be able to discuss it's features and how they help him to survive. Thank you, Ms. Helen! #handsonlearning #Wolverinepride #weareerwin

Did you know that teaching coding to elementary students helps them to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills? Last week Woodfin students spent time in the media center learning how to code. Students from all grade levels had a great time working together on developmentally appropriate sites to build their technology skills. #weareerwin #nextgenerationskills #bcs #wolverinepride
A huge thank you to Craggy Mountain Line Railroad and everyone who made this day possible for our wolverines! Kids had a fantastic time riding the train, drinking hot cocoa, receiving presents and meeting Mr. And Mrs. Claus! #togetherwerise #weareerwin #bcs #wolverinepride
