It was a Happy Twosday (2/22/22) in Mrs. Brammer’s Fourth Grade ELA/Social Studies Classes! The students marked this historic date by predicting what their lives would look like at age 22, working with the homophones "to", "too", and "two", learning about the prefix "bi", brainstorming famous food pairs like "burgers and fries", and playing tic-tac-toe in pairs. An extra bonus was chewing "Double Bubble" bubble gum as they participated in the activities!

Liberty - Mrs. Rozak's ELA classes had the honor of having a Q and A session with author and speaker, Mr. Ron Kirkwood ( from York, Pennsylvania) today. His book, Too Much for Human Endurance, is a detailed and well-researched study of The George Spangler Farm Hospitals and the role this location played in the outcome of the Civil War. Mr. Kirkwood is always impressed with what our students bring to the discussion and is a big fan of our current ELA unit, America in Conflict. We thank him for visiting our Liberty students again this year!

Mrs. Matson's and Mr. McDaniel's 5th Grade ELA classes celebrated the end of their Wordplay Module today by having a Wordplay Parade. Students chose an idiom to represent and then got to parade around to other classes. It was an exciting Play-on-Words Day!

Such an amazing food drive! Students worked really hard helping our community! Mr. Rob dressed like a tiger, Mr. Burton had to hold a snake and Mr. Pignatiello and Mrs. Maciejewski had to sing a duet! Liberty donated 3,555 food items! Have a great winter break and we will see you January 3rd!

The Liberty music department has been rocking it over the last couple of weeks. Clarinet players from Liberty and BUGC performed for the Village of Bourbonnais inaugural tree lighting event. They brought Holiday cheer as Bourbonnais community members enjoyed this brand new experience! We also had our winter Band, Orchestra and Choir performances. These musically talented Tigers did an amazing job performing for the first time in well over a year.
