Mrs. Grote's kindergarten celebrated the culmination of our farm unit today with a "Farm to Table" morning. We used heavy whipping cream to make butter. It took a LOT of shaking! Next, we ground wheat berries to make flour. Then we used the flour to make bread. We had to be patient while the yeast made the dough rise. It smelled so good while it was baking. Finally, we got to taste the rewards of our labor!
Mrs Grote's Kindergarten class and the 6th graders had two special visitors this morning. Kindergarten has been learning all about farm animals. Tim and Bayleigh Lacy brought in lambs and shared information about sheep with the classes. The kids even had the opportunity to pet the lambs and feel the texture of their wool.
Sixth graders paired up with Mrs Grote's kindergarteners to read for Dr Seuss's birthday!
Some serious detective work happening in sixth grade today. Students duh deep into their text to justify their evidence and find a thief!
It was all hands on deck & minds were running in sixth grade today. Students grouped up today to take their math skills to a whole new level!

With good behavior and hard work, Mrs. Grote's class has earned another fun reward. Today we experimented and learned how to make raisins dance.
Good afternoon, We don't have a bunch of wiggle room in the calendar for snow days, early outs, or late starts, which is why we utilize a remote day option on typical snow days. In calculating the hours for the school year, yesterday's late start has slightly dropped us below the required 1080 hours. To pick up some time, we will make Thursday, February 16th a regular, full day of school prior to parent-teacher conferences instead of a 1:30 pm dismissal. Parent-teacher conferences will remain the same (4:30 pm - 7:30 pm). Thank you.
The students in Mrs. Grote's class have worked hard to earn a mystery reward. Excellent behavior and quality work are rewarded with a puzzle piece. When the puzzle is finished, the class gets that reward. Our first puzzle was a hot chocolate party!
There will be a 10:00 am late start today January 30, at Minatare Public Schools, Pre-K and Grades K12. Buses will run accordingly. Please remember there is no breakfast served on late start days. Bus pickup time 9:15 at Coop, Melbeta pickup 9:35.
