Last spring, Mr. Monteith & Ms. Schwickerath received a grant for new STEM kits entitled "Spintronics: Engineer and Design Mechanical Circuits". Recently, the fourth graders started working with the Spintronic kits to help enhance their Energy Unit. Students solve the challenges with their partner as they progress through the program. It is fascinating to watch the students explore and learn more about energy with these kits. Students seem really excited to try this new opportunity.

Our preschool classes have been learning about Fire Safety. A big thank you to our New Hampton Firefighters for visiting our classroom to talk about fire safety and show the students all the gear they wear to keep themselves safe. After they visited, our students pretended to be firefighters too!

Students in grades K-4 were introduced to our Keystone AEA Digital Resources, specifically BookFlix and Pebble Go (Grades K-4) along with Trueflix (Grades 2-4), and MackinVia (Grade 4). All of these digital resources help enhance student reading and learning through multimedia resources. MackinVia, an app that provides e-books and audiobooks for students to check out, is also used heavily at the MS level! We love having access to our Keystone AEA Digital Resources and can't wait to use them throughout the year!--

Wow! Mrs. Schmitt is so impressed by her Day One 7th Graders FCS students! They practiced knife skills today by cutting fruit and vegetables to make their individual cars. In a previous class they drew out their sketches and made a plan and a list of what they needed. Take a look at the pictures to see their success!
