Governor Evers once again invited fourth grade students from around the state to participate in the Capitol Holiday Tree Ornament Project. This year's theme for the tree was “Wisconsin Waters”. Our FES fourth graders study Wisconsin history and geography and visited the capitol building in the fall, so they took this opportunity to connect their learning by making ornaments and sending them in. Yesterday, they held the Capitol Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony and the tree will be displayed in the Wisconsin State Capitol Rotunda through the end of the year. #WICapitolTree #WisconsinWaters

This week's Class of the Week is Mr. Rutkowski's 3rd Grade Class. They have been learning a lot in room 36! They have been learning the differences between a fact and an opinion, how to multiply by multiples of 10, and how to write an opinion paper. Recejavascript:void(0)ntly, they read "Balloons Over Broadway," which is about the puppeteer who came up with giant balloons that are used in Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Students then created their own balloons based on the book. Their teacher is excited for the rest of the year. Even though there are going to be challenges ahead, he is confident that they will work hard to reach their goals. Keep up the great work 3rd Graders! #fes #EaglesSoar

Fifth graders met with inspiring author Alane Adams over zoom this morning. Along with answering student questions, she talked to them about developing daily habits for writing and the important first step of using your creative brain to just get your ideas down. She also discussed how to create memorable connections to hook the reader from the first page. Her excitement and passion for writing was evident and very contagious!
The students watched her "Into the Book" video series before the visit and all of her books can be found in the school library. A special thanks to Mrs. Ahnen and the fifth grade teachers for providing this great opportunity for our students! Visit https://alaneadams.com/ to learn more about her and her books! #fes #EaglesSoar
