Last Friday, December 13th, these three 5th grade students gave up their day off school to compete in the CESA 3 Math 24 competition. Each of these students won at least one round and performed strongly against tough competition. #fes #EaglesSoar
Have a safe and enjoyable break! See you on Thursday, January 2, 2025! #fcs #EaglesSoar
Today's PBIS morning assembly at FES included both a teacher and a student challenge! Great job everyone! #fes #EaglesSoar
After learning about different Apollo Missions in their CKLA reading unit, 5th graders enjoyed designing their own Apollo Landing Modules. Their passengers were eggs. It was time to test their modules this week. Students scored points for how much their projects resembled real modules from NASA, how close they got to their landing target, and most importantly if their passenger, the egg, survived!
Mrs. Langmeier's Class also had a special visitor, Mrs. Adkins, to help them out during the launch. Mrs. Adkins is a former FCS teacher and grandma to one of Mrs. Langmeier's students. This was always one of her favorite projects that she did with her students when she taught at FES. She also shared some information with the students about what she learned from attending Space Camp in Alabama . She even brought them some tasty rocket treats that she made for them! Great work, 5th Graders!

🚀🎉 Ready for Lift-Off: 5th Graders Soar with DIY Rocket Launches! After two weeks of working on their design, the 5th graders were eager and ready to launch their rockets. Using air pressure and water their rockets shot off into the air. Some of the rockets were destroyed by the speed of take-off, others fell apart on re-entry, and some went really high. Everyone had a lot of fun trying to catch them as they came back in for a landing. Overall, this project was a blast! #fes #EaglesSoar

This week's Class of the Week is Mrs. Neisius' 5th Grade Class. Mrs. Neisius and her student teacher, Mr. McCallum, have been keeping these 5th graders engaged and active! They have been working on creating fictional narratives during reading and literacy, focusing on different text elements such as similes, metaphors, and personification. In science they enjoyed finding the properties of different mystery powders that are found in a kitchen. They’ve been burning them, mixing them with acid, iodine and water, and even tasting them. They also started to create rockets out of two liter soda bottles that will launch into the air. They can’t wait to see how high they will get! #fes #EaglesSoar

This week's Class of the Week is Mrs. Schoenberg's 3rd Grade Class. Mrs. Schoenberg’s class has been working very hard in both reading and math. In reading, they have been exploring the ancient Roman Civilization and discussing its lasting impact on the modern world. In math, the third graders have been focusing on solving two-step story problems and reinforcing their understanding of adding, subtracting, multiplication and division. The class is filled with vibrant personalities, and it has been a pleasure for Mrs. Schoenberg to get to know each of them. She looks forward to continuing to support their learning and growth throughout the year. Keep up the good work 3rd graders!
Six 5th-grade students recently attended a workshop at CESA, engaging in team-building activities that enhanced their leadership skills and promoted collaboration. It was a fantastic learning experience—well done, students! #EaglesSoar #fes
