Students in 3rd grade have been studying famous people of the past. As part of their study, students performed a play for the 2nd graders about some of the people they studied.
This group of students performed a play about Clara Barton, an American nurse who founded the American Red Cross.
Our students did a great job on this project!

Five of our FFA students were invited to travel to Des Monies for the annual Iowa Corn Day on the Hill that took place today.
While there, they were able to witness the processes of lobbying, met with their O’Brien County Representative Zach Dieken and learn more about our state’s legislation.
Thank you to the Iowa Corn Grower’s Association for the amazing experience and Representative Dieken for giving our FFA group tour of the Capitol!

8th grade is beginning a new unit, which means new vocabulary words.
To learn the new words and definitions, the students made notecards, practiced independently, and then challenged friends to a matching game.
As a final challenge, they played a friendly game of "Vocabulary Spoons".

The 2nd grade students have spent the last two weeks participating in March Book Madness!
8 books were selected from the top checked out picture books from the East Elementary Library. The students then read each of those books and voted on what book should move on to be this year's favorite book.
Students also got to travel to the High School and participate in some basketball activities with some of the High School Basketball players!
March Book Madness was a big hit and the winning book was, Dog vs. Cat!

The 6th grade students just finished their unit on "Overcoming Obstacles" and have started their "Number the Stars" unit. To tie the two themes together, the students are creating podcasts that will share information about people from WWII who overcame obstacles to help in the Resistance.
Our students are off to a great start and we can't wait to listen to this project once they are done!

6th graders wore a fraction, decimal, or percent around the Middle School for the last few days. As teachers or other students came up to them, they were asked what their equivalent decimal, percent, or fractions were.
This was a great way to help our students memorize some commonly used fractions, decimals and percentages.
