🧦 Crazy Sock Day at Greenfield! 🧦
A few weeks ago, Greenfield Elementary celebrated Crazy Sock Day as part of our October inclusion focus on Down Syndrome Awareness. 💙💛

Each month, our school highlights a different area of inclusion—September’s focus was Deaf and Hearing Impairment. For that activity, classes were challenged to spell the word UNIFIED in a creative way, and we chose to sign it in American Sign Language! 🤟

We love finding fun and meaningful ways to celebrate inclusion, understanding, and unity at Greenfield! 💖🖤

Students in Mrs. Stimmel’s class had fun using our new Bridges math curriculum! They played a game called “Quick Look,” where one partner flashed their number rack and the other had to quickly figure out how many beads were moved.
