This week our Kindergarten and 1st grade students are learning all about colors! 🎨
Today they sorted and counted Fruit Loops into 10 Frame charts. Then they created Fruit Loop rainbows by organizing the colors into different patterns. What a fun day of learning! 😁
In summer school, our Kindergarten and 1st grade students talked about what types of vehicles and buildings you need in a community. Then they built bridges, cars, grocery stores, houses, gas stations, and so much more to create their very own Lego Cities. 🤩
Awesome work and way to show off your building skills Bluejays!
Some fifth grade Bluejay Buddies are getting pop tabs ready to be delivered to the Ronald McDonald House.
Our Kindergarten and 1st grade classes are learning all about spiders this week in summer school. They did an awesome job cutting and gluing everything together to make a cool spider poster! 🤩
The fifth grade had fun at our end of year celebration at The Hall!

How we feel about almost being 4th graders!!!! 🥳
Last week, 4th graders had a very educational day of learning in the city of Madison. First, we were able to visit the Henry Vilas Zoo, where students were able to to relate a variety of science topics covered throught this year at the zoo. Students were able to see different animal habitats, behaviors and adaptations. Then we got to learn all about our Wisconsin history at the Wisconsin Veteran's Museum. Students showed their knowledge from what we learned in class about the different wars during our tour. Lastly, we got to explore and learn all about our beautiful captiol!!! This is a day the 4th graders will remember for a lifetime.

Miranda and Baptiste Paul, two well-know children’s book authors, visited our elementary school and presented on the importance of bravery and expanding our horizons! After the presentations, our 3rd and 4th grade classes had an opportunity to share their published books with Miranda! She was so impressed by the work our students did and noted that their messages are powerful and inspiring! Keep writing and using your voices to make a difference! 😁
