Cold weather and SNOW!
The cold weather is fast approaching. We ask parents to dress their youngster as warmly as possible prior to their leaving for school. Even though some children ride the bus to school, they still will be spending a considerable amount of time outdoors on the playground, particularly during the noon hour. Our school district policy states that when it is not raining or when the temperature is 10 degrees or above, pupils are not permitted into the building until the usual time of 8:25 AM (unless they are having breakfast) and 12:45 PM for 4K so be sure to dress your youngster for our Wisconsin winters. On rainy days or when the temperature is below 10 degrees, pupils are permitted to enter the building at 8:15 AM and will spend the noon hour indoors. A red flag will be placed on the doors indicating early entrance due to inclement weather. Please be sure your child has a hat and a pair of mittens. PLEASE LABEL THEIR ITEMS SO IT’S EASIER TO RETURN IF THEY ARE LOST.

Going Public!
In the last several weeks Mitchell's Kindergarteners and 1st graders have been working on American Symbol Inquiry. They spent a lot of time in the computer lab and classrooms learning all about The Statue of Liberty, The Liberty Bell, The American Flag and The President of the United States! It was a lot of fun and everyone learned a lot!! Enjoy some examples of their learning!

Inquiry Research
Mitchell's K5 and 1st graders are learning all about the different
animals that live on farms. They are studying sheep, goats, pigs, cows, horses, chickens, donkeys and geese. Our students are learning what foods these animals eat, the size of the animal, what their habitat is like, the parts
of the animals' bodies, fun facts and much more!
Addisen, from Mrs. Richards room, shares her new learnings!
