    Tracking Patterns

    Outdoor Learning Lions (O.L.L.) students kicked off this year with a focus on patterns - including those in nature and literacy with non-fiction reference books! They started creating journal pages with leaf and bark rubbings, and searched for animal tracks in the snow. They collected data as a school-wide team to evaluate how these patterns in nature and seasonal observations contribute to naturalists' understanding of how to support the world around us.

    Wellness Challenges with Mr. LeGraw

    In PE last week, students worked hard on their fitness! Our 3rd and 4th graders completed the PACER test, while younger students took part in a similar endurance challenge. We also focused on body-strengthening activities and ended the week with some fun in our new gaga ball pit!

    A Tasty Autumn Club!

    Staff from our local community partner, The Cornucopia Project, came to FES to offer a Cooking Club for Grade 3 and 4 students. While creating yummy recipes to share with peers, students have been practicing skills like cooperation, math, and paying attention to their senses! This week they made garlic bread muffins with dipping sauce! Last week, they made kale salad with a maple vinaigrette dressing! Cooking Club happens every Wednesday for the month of December.

Morphs and Milestones Adventures

Students at Francestown Elementary School discovered their interests in nature during our Open House this past week. Nate from Morphs and Milestones brought his reptile collection for students to observe, touch and discover more about. His non profit organization is very popular in town and all the students and families were very interested in learning more about them that evening. Thank you, Nate!
