PBIS Student Challenge Day Fun! Students who turned in an Eagle Wing had the chance to put their name in the drawing for their grade level to compete in our PBIS Student Challenge at today's assembly. The challenge was to move as many marshmallows as possible from one bowl to another using only a straw! Congrats to Kendra from 5th grade for taking the win! Great job to all our students who showed what it means to Be Respectful, Be Responsible, and Be Safe while having fun! #fes #EaglesSoar

Our 5th graders showed amazing perseverance in science recently as they explored how energy flows using energy balls and by building their own circuits to light up bulbs. They didn’t need thousands of tries like Thomas Edison, but they kept going until their bulbs shined bright! Just like Edison, they didn’t fail with each attempt—they learned what didn’t work and tried again. What a great example of our PBIS Word of the Month in action! #PBIS #Perseverance #fes #EaglesSoar

Several FES classes, including those of Mrs. Kamps, Mrs. Wiest, and Ms. Hinrichsen, enjoyed a virtual author visit with Peggy Thomas, author of The Soil in Jackie’s Garden. She read her book and answered students’ questions about writing, gardening, and composting. The visit was part of the Wisconsin Agriculture in the Classroom program. #fes #EaglesSoar

Science Joke of the Day: Why did the physics student break up with his girlfriend?
Answer:
She had too much inertia! She just wanted to stay at rest and resist any change in their relationship. :-)

We’d love for your student to be part of the next chapter of this amazing tradition!

On Thursday, October 30th, Fennimore students had the opportunity to support Josiah King in the WSMA State Honors Band Concert at the Overture Center in Madison.
♫To participate in the ensemble, Josiah had to prepare an etude, a class A solo, sight read an excerpt and memorize scales. Josiah was 1 of only 6 high school alto saxophone players in the whole state who made it to this level. Congrats Josiah on this remarkable achievement! Josiah was also selected to solo on the soprano saxophone in Danzon No. 2 by Arturo Marquez. ♫
The Honors Band was directed by Dr. Shanti Simon of the University of Colorado - Boulder. Students were amazed by the musical talent of the group but Josiah's solo was their favorite part! #FHSBand #FHSMeanMachine #EAGLEPride

At the end of October, our 3rd graders spent the day exploring all things pumpkin! They measured, counted seeds, and even painted their own pumpkins. It was a fun, hands-on day of learning and creativity. #fes #EaglesSoar
