This week's Class of the Week is Mrs. Langmeier's 5th Grade Class. These fifth graders have been working very hard this quarter. They are enjoying the tradebook, Number the Stars in Reading Class. As they read each chapter, they are working on various skills like comprehension, main idea, synonyms, antonyms, and context clues. They are using their keyboarding and language skills to publish essays about autumn fun in Wisconsin. In Social Studies, they are learning about the Thirteen Colonies. In Science, they are working on experiments with rice and in Math they are multiplying decimals. The students are excited to send out their Travel Journals. They hope to receive many postcards and learn about geography and different cultures as their journals travel around the country and maybe even the world. Keep up the great work 5th graders! #fes #EaglesSoar

Attention Elementary Parents: You may have received a text saying to check your email without the email arriving in your inbox. We have been alerted to the issue and will try again tomorrow to send it out! Our Skylert system is having technical difficulties this morning.
Attention Fennimore Community - there is currently a phone scam calling businesses and community members asking for donations for Fennimore band t-shirts. This is not associated with our school in any way. Please do not donate money over the phone to anyone!
Earlier this month, fourth grade students had the opportunity to visit Madison to see our current capitol. While visiting the capital, students got to see where legislators pass laws and where our state's Supreme Court listens to the state's current issues. The students also made a stop in Belmont on the way to see Wisconsin's first capitol building. It was interesting to see where Wisconsin legislators first met and even more fun since it is in Southwest Wisconsin! Field trips like this are always a great as it helps students make connections to the Wisconsin history and government they learn about in class.

Yesterday, students from Fennimore High School traveled to UW-Platteville for a field trip. At the Women in STEM Career Day, students attended four sessions where they learned more about different disciplines of STEM and participated in different activities related to these fields. At the beginning of the event, they all completed a Lego bridge challenge before splitting up to attend different activities. Highlights from the day included trying on different safety equipment in the Industrial Studies session, completing mini labs in the Chemistry session, solving different puzzles and learning about Mobius strips in the Math session, and building rubber band cars in the Mechanical Engineering session. It was a great day of STEM fun!
