Students took part in a NEW 5 day mountain biking skill camp called Camp Cuyuna! At camp, the students learned about mountain biking: safety, basic skills, and techniques. Thank you to the instructors and all of the participants!🚵♀️


Ms. Alexis and Mrs. Elle worked with students to recognize numbers and create a pattern for that number. They also got to decorate cookies for a birthday!

Camp Invention took place last week at CRES. It was a success. Here is a recap of what the students learned. Camp Invention is made up of 4 different exploration topics: Invention Celebration, Pop-Up Venture, MimicBot, and Catching Air.
In Invention Celebration, campers learn about planning and developing a celebration. They sketch the ultimate party hat with a purpose, then investigate the science of circuitry to unlock an LED ball. Once their colorful light is glowing, campers prototype their innovative party hat. Then they sketch and prototype an invention that will help them during a celebration. It could be a robot waiter, a machine to take out the trash or an automatic door that helps guests inside — anything is possible!
Campers become entrepreneurs by creating the ultimate business in Pop-Up
Venture! They build models of their design and generate ideas for their shop. Then they develop a business plan, receive money from a lender and apply for a license. Campers explore ways to include environmentally conscious design in their pop-up shop! They contemplate the upfront costs versus the long-term impact of green space and continue building their pop-up shop, adding curb appeal to attract customers.
During MimicBot, children receive the challenge of turning look-alike robots into original, one-of-a-kind stuffies. They discover their robot has mimicking abilities and investigate the inner mechanics to find out what makes it move and groove. While exploring their robot, a Copy Cat who loves to steal ideas and claim them as his own reveals he has been lurking! Campers investigate patents as a way to thwart the Copy Cat. After discovering how nature codes for physical features
in plants and animals, children translate DNA code to unlock access to building block materials and start to style their stuffie. They dive deeper into mimicry by exploring some of nature’s greatest mimics, including animals that use mimicry
for protection.
In Catching Air, children explore the components of their mini skateboards and some inventors who have made them possible! They head to the Skate Shop to pick up their own mini board and then personalize it. Campers practice skate tricks as they explore the fun of physics through force, friction and more! They receive a finger shoe, then use their new kick to flip their board into a bowl. After that, children design their skate park! They create ramps, rails and other features that put their boards and tricks to the test. Campers create, test and recreate using DIY techniques to build a uniquely designed skate park that encourages fast-rolling fun!










On June 1st, SALT advisor Katherine Thoennes and representative Cadence Wynn attended a meeting for the Northern Minnesota American Red Cross. The Red Cross honored SALT with their Services to the Armed Forces Partner of the Year award in recognition of the Service Action Leadership Team’s dedication to service members and veterans and the mission of the American Red Cross through engagement in the Holiday for Heroes project. We are proud of SALTs hard work and contribution to the C-I school and community!


4th graders ended their year with a fun field trip to Camp Confidence Learning Center! They got to enjoy the petting zoo, zipline, slides, the glass-bottom boat and the BIG Adirondack chair. Thanks for hosting our 4th graders!




These students ended their school year in the park! Watch out 2nd Grade...here they come!
