Ms. Munger's SEL Project 😊
Recently, Ms. Munger's class completed a stellar SEL project in the classroom. Each student had a poster with their name on it. Classmates would walk around the room writing positive characteristics/descriptors of one another. The smiling faces in the last picture really says it all! 😊 #FarmerFun #Enjoy

📚 Kindergarten Literacy Workstations! 📚
In Mrs. Unkrich's class, students are learning through literacy workstations. The students are learning to work independently in small groups. Mrs. Unkrich works with small guided reading groups while our young scholars are learning in their workstations. They are rotated on a daily basis, so each day students are focusing on a different skill or a skill that they may need to build upon. Soon they will be ready to begin guided reading groups! #FarmerFun #Enjoy

2nd Grade Math "Counts!" 😉
Mrs. Fauser's class were busy counting beans. They practiced counting and sorting ones, tens, hundreds and thousands as a warm up for their upcoming Math unit. Students divided the beans and worked in groups counting. Our 2nd grade scholars added the beans together learning to carry to the next place value. This class did an OUTSTANDING job! #FarmerFun #Enjoy

🍏 Apples & Engineering ⚙️
With fall officially here, Mrs. Collin's 3rd graders took time to learn about apples! The class investigated the many varieties of apples, how large apples can get (including the world's largest apple,) and much more. Afterwards, our young scholars explored the properties of paper and began engineering and testing their very own apple trappers. #FarmerFun #Enjoy
Fall Weather 🍂
It may not officially be fall, yet, but we have had some cooler weather of late. At FCES, we try to get students outdoors, as much as possible, for recesses, Physical Education, and mask breaks. We even have classes learning at the outdoor classroom, on the trail, or underneath a comfy shade tree. This is just a friendly reminder to make sure students are wearing weather appropriate clothing to school. Pants and jackets are a huge help, especially, on a windy day like today!

📚 Reading Time in Mrs. Layer's Class! 📚
Mrs. Layer's 1st graders have been working to become super readers during their reading time. They learned that good readers read the pictures, read the words, and retell the story. Student's find a quiet, comfortable spot in the classroom to focus on reading. Everyone has their own book tub with books, poems, and a reading buddy (stuffed animal) to read to during quiet reading time. The class has set a goal of 15 minutes without stopping and have already made it all the way to 9 minutes!
Good luck on reaching your goal Mrs. Layer's class!!! #FarmerFun #Enjoy

Kepler's Kiddos Practicing how to Synergize
During their Leadership Training, 4K’s Kiddos practiced how to work together to SYNERGIZE! Each team was given the exact same set of building materials and challenged to build the tallest tower that would hold Bo Peep, Ms. Kepler’s favorite Toy Story character who demonstrates Synergizing all the time, for a total of ten seconds! She was impressed at how well all of the teams worked together with their teammates to build some outstanding towers! The winning team’s tower is pictured with Bo Peep at the top!
