USF Puppetry students came to perform a Social Emotional Learning Puppet Show for Kindergarteners 💜
In Dance class, students used creative movement to make their own version of Rock, Paper, Scissor!
🪨🗞️✂️
Students in 102 used clay and other manipulatives to demonstrate how animals use their structures (spines, shells, spikes, etc.) to protect themselves from predators!
In Dance, Kindergarten and 1st Grade students read The Rainbow Fish.
Then they created a dance with a beginning, middle, and end based on the story.
They focused on how costumes, lighting, and music can help demonstrate key details like characters, and the setting.
The 5th graders have been working hard on "Paint the Plow".
Let's hope the plow won't be needed any time soon and will just be a unique piece of art. 🙂
Happy Friday!
May your weekend be as joy-filled as our kindergarten friends experiencing the parachute for the first time in P.E.

Teach. Learn. Grow. These are key words that reflect the SFSD theme for 2023-24: Cultivate. This morning students at Eugene Field A+ Elementary spent some time learning (and digging!) with Iron Fox Farm, an urban farm near the school. Thank you, Iron Fox Farm, for tending to the soil, while also nourishing the minds of these future leaders!

Last Friday the PTA hosted the EFA+ Fall Festival!
It was a fun night filled with food, games, a book fair, and more.
Today was Picture Day! Smiles were ready!
Today we had our first MI Exchange!
Students met with their MI Family and created Artist Trading Cards inspired by their favorite Smarts.
MI Exchange is a time when students meet in mixed grade level groups to make connections with students and teachers they may not regularly interact with.
The 4th graders have been using some new and exciting painting techniques in art integration. This is part of their science unit focusing on energy.
They are attempting to answer:
What is energy?
How is energy related to motion?
How can energy/motion be used to create art?
Students in 103 are learning about how structures help living things survive.
They used Word Smart and People Smart skills to partner read. Then they used drama skills to act out their learning.
Mark your calendar for Tuesday at 6pm! SFSD and experts from Avera are teaming up for the second year of the Family Forum Series. It's 30-minutes of online learning that includes practical advice to strengthen families. September 19 Topic :Benefits of Setting Limits.
Kindergarteners took their first field trip of the year and toured the fire station. They learned about firefighters’ gear, tools, and truck, and even got to sit in the fire engine!
Students also learned about fire safety - with their homework being to learn their address, and ask if smoke detectors work at home!
