Welcome or welcome back to Challenge at Bell's Crossing Elementary! We welcome Mr. Cvammen. (pronounced: Kwoman) He will work with two of our third grade groups on Fridays as well as going into some second grade classrooms! I will teach a third grade group and all of the fourth and fifth grade groups. I will work in some second grade classrooms, too!

In Challenge we try. If that doesn't work, we try something new.

Feel free to peruse my website!
