What a week of hands-on learning across our school!
Check out the pictures below to see our students learning, experimenting, and having fun.
As part of their study of North Dakota history, students got a firsthand look at what life was like for early settlers. They learned how people farmed in the early days and discovered the amount of hard work that went into something as simple as making butter.
What a fun way to connect history lessons to real-life experiences!
Just a reminder about dismissal for grades PK–4
- Students will be dismissed in three groups: bus riders, parent pickup, and walk/daycare.
- 3:28pm: Bus students will be walked out and loaded onto buses. Parent pickup students will exit Door 10 with an adult to meet their parents.
** To help dismissal run smoothly, parents will not be allowed into the building between 3:25–3:35pm. After 3:35pm, you may come in to see a teacher, stop by the office, or pick something up.
- 3:35pm: Walkers and daycare students will be dismissed, after buses have departed to reduce traffic.
** If your child’s after-school plan changes, please contact the office by 2:30pm so we can get the message to their teacher.
A peek into last week’s learning at Fessenden-Bowdon!
- Kindergarten explored rhythm with boomwhackers during library time. Ms. Dietz is incorporating music education for our elementary students.
- 5th/6th graders designed maps with legends and scales and experimented with mass, recording their observations.
- Construction Tech students completed the new fence at the Wells County Fairgrounds.
- Creative Writing students used sensory details from the outdoors to inspire their writing.
- Humanities students learned origami and created some fun designs.
So much great learning happening inside and outside our walls! Check back on Friday for more highlights!
