It was Teacher Challenge time at the Friday PBIS assembly this morning! Mrs. Reinke, Mrs. Greenlee, Mr. McCallum, and Mr. Z faced off in a stacking cups challenge. Student Teacher Mr. McCallum came out on top as he was the first to stack the cups in a pyramid, place the ball on top, and then unstack them, all while keeping the ball from falling! Great Job Mr. McCallum! #fes #EaglesSoar

At the end of October, 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. They started the day learning about the work of event sponsor, Trane Technologies, and then completed puzzles related to the presentation. One group from Fennimore were winners in completing these puzzles first! Highlights from the day included seeing the animals from the campus Animal House, building fruit-powered lights, and completing Chemistry mini labs. It was a great day of STEM fun!

☃️As we head into colder weather, please remember our recess guidelines! When the weather dips into the 30s, winter coats, hats, and mittens are essential—sweatshirts alone won’t keep our kiddos warm.
Additionally, for those looking to play in the snow, don’t forget to send your child with boots and snow pants! Let’s keep everyone cozy and ready for some winter fun! Thank you for your cooperation! #EaglesSoar #fes
This week's Class of the Week is Mr. Z's Fifth Grade Class. Besides mastering their multiplication and division skills, students recently went to UW-Platteville to watch a presentation on how mathematics is intertwined in their everyday life. Additionally, Mr. Z's students have been working hard on writing many different types of personal narratives, including how they got their name. Finally, Social Studies and Science have been exciting by making cards for Veterans Day and taking apart old toys to explore the inside. #fes #EaglesSoar
Parents and Guardians, please mark your calendars for Friday, December 13th and Friday, December 20th.
We will be running half days due to the power needing to be turned off at the MS/HS building for construction.
Elementary bus students will be released at 11:55
MS/HS students will be released at 12:10
All students will have the opportunity to eat lunch prior to leaving school on both Fridays. There will be no access into the MS/HS building after students leave on either day, so students should bring all items needed home.

This week's Class of the Week is Ms. Hunt's 4th Grade Class. They have been very busy in Room 51! They just finished their turkey writing where they had to beg families to find a different turkey to have for Thanksgiving. Recently during math, they learned how to do long division. Long division is one of the most challenging math skills taught in 4th grade and they have been working so hard at it! Lastly, they have been building dioramas to portray a Native American Tribe from Wisconsin. Keep up the great work 4th Graders!

Last month, the third graders took a field trip to Folklore Village. The classes traveled through three different stations. One station was the old school house where the students learned about the school, who attended, and talked about the differences at our school. They also learned a few games and found out that their teachers were magic! A second station taught folk dancing including the broom waltz. In the last group, students learned about wool and made their own wool balls to take home. #fes #EaglesSoar
