Kindergarten has had an amazing start to our school year! This week we focused on our school value of cooperation. We read lots of picture books with the theme of cooperation, worked with our friends to build houses out of blocks, learned to play math games together and practiced cooperating with the teachers in the school by following directions. We have such a kind, cooperative group and are building a wonderful learning community.

In Wellness, students have been learning about the Wellness Wheel and how to take care of not only their physical health, but their social and emotional health as well. By taking care of each section, our whole-body health will improve. Our focus has also been on cooperation, healthy communication, and sportsmanship. Classes have played games like “The Floor is Lava” and “Hula Hut Relay Challenge” to practice these concepts. See the photo of Ms. Gilbert’s fourth grade class and their double-decker hula hut!

Grade one has focused on our core value of Cooperation this week, and through the exploration of math materials are learning to work “cooperatively” with their classmates during math exploration. Sharing materials with a classmate and using their imagination and creativity has been a positive learning experience.

Third Graders worked to show our core value of cooperation this week. We learned how to model multiplication problems with equal groups and arrays, and played games together to practice. In science, we explored what makes a cloud, and learned about four types of clouds. We also discovered how observing clouds can help us predict what type of weather is coming.

September 28th 5:30 - 6:45PM - Come to the school to see what the students have been learning, connect with community resources and meet the staff. There are so many amazing things happening at AES! Come see our students SHINE!

Family, student and community feedback is essential to building a strong school and certain aspects of a school can directly impact student learning. I ask that you consider completing this survey so I can gather information around family and community engagement, student expectations, school safety and

I will provide this survey three times a year to help get a sense of whether we are addressing these factors in a positive way.
