Even though Veterans Day seems far in the past, there are 2 people that we would like to thank for their service and commitment to SFMS. \u00a0Greg and Lynnette Rakun have provided the sound system for our program to honor local veteranss the past couple of years. \u00a0This is a big undertaking as it means bringing in speakers, control panel, microphones and other equipment the day before the program. \u00a0Greg works with the students on sound checks and continues to monitor every aspect of sound the day of the event. \u00a0Thank you Greg and Lynnette, for being such caring friends!<\/div>\n

5th Grade Gets “Biz”zy<\/b><\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n
Fifth graders are busy experiencing Free Enterprise during one of Junior Achievement’s Biz Town lessons. We have been fortunate to once again have volunteer Cynthia Roeck from Cleveland State Bank teach us financial literacy. All students need to be able to write their first and last names in cursive in order to sign their checks and credit card receipts at Biz Town.\u00a0Please be on the lookout for a paper announcing an opportunity to help out the fifth graders Biz Town experience as a ‘Mystery Worker’. \u00a0Our trip to Biz Town in Milwaukee is scheduled for\u00a0Tuesday, April 12th. We are appreciative of the support of the fifth grade parents. This is the first year we actually have more volunteers than we are able to take along.<\/div>\n

Read 180 “Poet-Tree”<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/td>\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n
Students in our classroom have been challenged this year to read poems, memorize them, and present them to their classmates. \u00a0This has been a great activity that encourages strong fluency and presentation skills. \u00a0Some of the students’ favorites have come from Shel Silverstein whose books include: Where the Sidewalk Ends, A Light in the Attic, Falling Up, and Every Thing On It and Jack Prelutsky’s poems from My Dog May Be a Genius and Something Big Has Been Here. \u00a0When a student has chosen to accept this challenge, they are acknowledged by a seasonal cut-out that displays their name and the poem they have memorized. \u00a0This is then displayed on our classroom “Poet-Tree.”<\/div>\n

Grade 5 students had the opportunity to learn more about the wind instruments of the band at our 3rd annual\u00a0“Band Demo Day for Wind Instruments”.\u00a0 Local musicians shared interesting facts about their instrument as well as performed short songs for the students. The program opened and closed with a band arrangement of music from “Star Wars”. After the presentation students were able to try both woodwind and brass instruments and reflect on the experience.<\/p>\n
