Fennimore High School Soil Team members visited 5th grade Science classes to share their knowledge about soil. These juniors did an outstanding job explaining different soil types and answering students’ questions. The 5th graders even got to touch and feel different types of soil to explore their unique characteristics!

This lesson connected to an investigation the students started earlier this year when a few 5th graders “planted” pairs of underwear in soil around Fennimore. In the spring, they’ll dig them up to see how the soil has affected them!

Who knows? There may be some future FFA members and Soil Team experts in the making! #fes #EaglesSoar

Our PBIS Eagle Wing Tower was full earlier this week, so students earned some bonus time outside to get fresh air, move their bodies, and enjoy the sunshine with friends.

What a perfect day to celebrate positive behavior and enjoy the beautiful Fall weather! #fes #EaglesSoar

Fifth grade science students have been investigating what plants need to thrive and grow using green onions. Through a variety of hands-on investigations, students observed how different conditions affected their plants and used their findings to determine what plants need to survive and grow. What a great example of science in action—and learning by doing! #fes #EaglesSoar

This week's Class of the Week is Mrs. Melcher's 2nd Grade Class. In Reading, they have been reviewing letter patterns and their different sounds. They have also been working hard on using their text evidence to answer questions from various stories, like The Cat Bandit. In Math, they are learning Even/Odd Numbers & Arrays, which they are doing an amazing job on! Finally, in Science, they read the story Water Princess and learned about how some children have to walk miles each day to collect dirty water. Soon, they will be working in groups to create their own water filters. What fun! Nice job 2nd graders! #fes #EaglesSoar

Third grade students have been learning about animal classification in reading, focusing on the five groups of vertebrates: mammals, amphibians, reptiles, fish, and birds.

To wrap up the unit, students visited the Henry Vilas Zoo in Madison! They had the chance to see many of the animals they’ve been studying and make real-world connections to their learning. #fes #EaglesSoar

Fifth grade science students kicked off their next unit with a fun Predator and Prey game! Students took on the roles of predators and prey and experienced firsthand how challenging it can be to find enough food to survive.

Only about half of the students were able to eat enough to survive! The activity was a fun way to introduce how organisms depend on each other and how food availability can affect populations. #fes #EaglesSoar

The STEM Shuttle rolled into town last week, bringing some exciting hands-on learning to our 4th grade students!

Students took part in engaging activities focused on constellations, the importance of protecting our ozone layer, robotics, magnetism and gravity, and engineering. They had the chance to explore, experiment, and think like scientists and engineers.

What a fun way to bring STEM concepts to life! #fes EaglesSoar
