Homecoming is only a few more weeks away! !!
Last week, Mrs. Schwatz's Class talked about the author Eric Carle. Riverview Elementary Principal Mr. K came to read one of his favorite Eric Carle books, "Do You Want to be My Friend?" to our class. This story fit perfectly into our Work and People Skills about building a community and our new reading series where we look at pictures and words to help us understand the story. Thanks for stopping by, Mr. K!

At Redgranite Elementary, our walking path has proven to be a good form of exercise and has taken us on some incredible journeys!
Over the years, students and staff have walked thousands of miles, working together to reach amazing goals—like walking the distance of Route 66, trekking from one state capital to another, and walking the distance equivalent to the Ice Age Trail. It hasn’t always been easy, but with determination, teamwork, and perseverance, we’ve proven that every step counts.
This school year, we’re setting out on our newest adventure: walking the distance of explorer Colin O’Brady’s historic 932-mile journey across Antarctica! We can’t wait to lace up our shoes, hit the path, and accomplish this feat together!

The Parkside 5th Graders recently started a new language module with the big question: “How do communities sustain their culture?” To kick things off, students had the chance to hear from Mr. Morrin, WASD’s district administrator, who shared his Native American history.
He talked about the tribes found in Wisconsin and some of their traditions. Students also learned how people pass culture down through things like language, stories, and celebrations. Many students made great connections between what they heard and our unit’s big question.
This presentation gave students a strong start to the module and helped them see how important it is for communities to hold on to and celebrate their culture.
Thank you, Mr. Morrin, for coming in and sharing your background with the 5th Grade students.

Mrs. Lantagne is trying to save the Monarch Butterfly population and included the students at Redgranite Elementary in the experience this year. She brought in an aquarium so the students could watch the transition as the caterpillars formed a chrysalis and hatched into butterflies. Mrs. Lantagne has shown the classes how to tag the butterflies in hopes they make it to Mexico for the winter. She then releases the butterflies with the students. Thank for such a great learning experience!!!
Earlier this week, the Redgranite Correctional Institution donated supplies for our students at Redgranite Elementary. Thank you so much!

Yesterday, Redgranite Third Graders celebrated the Third Day of Third Grade! They celebrated by highlighting the Number 3! They began the day talking about three-digit numbers and playing a "Build a Three-Digit Number" game. Throughout the day, they listened to books like The True Story of the Three Little Pigs, Moldilocks and the Three Scares, and The Three Billy Goats Gruff. Then they did an art activity and were asked to use only THREE colors. They learned about the prefex tri- and learned that it means three. As in tricycle, triangle, and tripod. They also wrote about three things we wished for and then enjoyed a 3Musketeers candy bar. What a wonderful day to be in third grade!
