Our Montpelier Kodiaks stepped back in history today during a field trip to the Mississinewa 1812 Living History Day. What a gorgeous fall day to spend along the Mississinewa River learning about what was life was like in 1812.

Check out the busy bears at BIS!
Students in Mrs. Kari Crouse' s 3rd grade class have been working on understanding the value of money, and adding and subtracting money and coins. Yesterday, the students were given an envelope with money and had to plan a full meal within their given budget. They had to count their money, determine the total cost of their purchases, and how much change they would receive.
Nice work, Bears!
