Earlier this school year, the 4th graders participated in the statewide Sign Warrior drawing contest, teaching the importance of keeping signs from being vandalized. Students were encouraged to create artwork to showcase the importance of being a Sign Warrior. Winners would have their drawing featured in the upcoming Sign Warrior Calendar.
Dakota Prairie had two winners- Gracie and Lily. Congratulations!
Matthew from NDLTAP and Cameron Swenson, Nelson County Commissioner came to present them with their awards and discuss the importance of keeping the signs safe and being a Sign Warrior.

The 4th Grade got to tour Farmers and Merchants Bank in Tolna. They learned about insurance, loans, interest rates, and the importance of education.
The kids had a great time and were able to take home a 50 cent piece and some cool sunglasses, too!
Thanks to all at the bank for a great time.

The 4th Grade were treated to a special presentation of Native American Traditions by Kevin Dauphinais, Sean Dauphinais and Jennifer Rusten.
Kevin talked about their ceremonies, the importance of the circle and the drum. We started with a prayer song for our friend Liam, then learned how to circle dance with a partner and then as a group. We had a great day listening to Kevin and Sean sing with the drum and dancing along.
Jennifer dressed in her traditional Ribbon skirt brought her knowledge as well as some fry bread and Wojapi, which is a thick Juneberry pudding, the consistency of sauce.
We are so blessed by these special people to bring alive what we read about in our Native American Books.
BOGO Book fair time! 📚💕
