Our Manning students have been studying the Revolutionary War. Thanks to Mr. Ken Wilson with the local chapter of the N.C. Sons of the American Revolution for coming today to speak to our students.
What a great story of learning! Back in October, our Manning 2nd graders read Pumpkin Jack, a story about a little boy named Tim who carved a pumpkin (Jack) for Halloween and later threw it out in a field where it began to rot. Once Tim thought Jack was gone forever, he kicked some dirt over the remains and forgot about it. Then when spring arrived, Tim found a sprout where Jack once was and began taking care of it. By fall he had a new pumpkin.
Students in Mrs. Duncan's class decided to see if they could successfully recreate the events in the story. They carved their own Pumpkin Jack and let him rot in a sealed container. Once the pumpkin was unrecognizable, they covered it with more soil , closed it, and sealed it back. Students to got see the first pumpkin sprout this week. Thanks Mrs. Duncan for making learning truly come to LIFE for our students. #TogetherWeSucceed #ManningMustangs
It's been a fun few weeks at Manning. We hope everyone enjoys the holiday break and comes back ready to finish strong! #TogetherWeSucceed

While you’re watching the Macy’s Parade today, check this out.
Our Manning 3rd graders spent some time learning about Tony Sarg, the puppeteer who created the first balloons for the Macy's parade.
