The second-grade classrooms at Triton Elementary School held its annual Spider Beauty Contest. There were many contestants. When the students finished their voting, Adrian Rooney and his contestant, Midnight, were proclaimed the winners in Mrs. Phenix’s class. In Mrs. Biddle’s class the winner was Shawn Young with Nicki. Claire Rowe and her spider, Crazy, won top honors in Mrs. Voreis’ classroom. The winners are pictured. The classes then took the contestants outside and let them go to live happily and free. Students celebrated spider week by learning facts about spiders through the stories they read, watched interesting videos of spiders eating and molting, studied spider body parts, made spider art projects and told many spider stories.
