It has been an amazing week sharing Adventures with Adams and Can Crushing with some amazing kids. It ranged from UNO and Switch Challenges to swishing some hoops. Some time was spent using our creative skills to paint a unique design on a rock. And ended the week in the sun crushing cans to add to our recycling bin. It doesn't get much better than this!!Thanks to this bunch of kiddos for choosing to spend their earned points in this way!! #WhatAGreatWeek

A group of 3rd graders helped take all the cans brought in out to be dumped in the bin. Aubrey chose to use her points to spend on Adventures with Adams. She was a great assistant in helping distribute prizes to the large number of students who participated and recycled cans today. Then Cece had purchased crushing cans with Adams. She was a can crushing machine, jumping and flattening those cans!! What an Amazing Day!♻️🌎
