Students in 1st and 4th grade completed a PBL project on "why attendance matters" for the South Rowan Community PBL expo.  First graders shared PicCollages they created on their iPads highlighting some of the best things about school.  Fourth graders used survey results to create graphs and analyze data from students in the school.  

Using Enochville's new research website, www.pebblego.com, first grade students researched penguins and created their own movies with the Shadow Puppet EDU app. As part of their Science curriculum, they learn about life cycles of plants and animals.
