Kindergarten

Senior Buddy and Parent Picnic is scheduled for Wednesday, September 23 from 12:00-1:00 on the CA playground. Reminder to parents, the Kindergarten students need to bring a lunch from home and the Seniors are responsible for their own. This week we will apply some of our math skills we have been working on so far. The students will color a sorting mat, sort M & M’s, and place items on a graph and color the graph. This activity is called our M&M math and the children love it each year.

 

2nd & 3rd Grade

The second & third graders went to Liberty Park to honor the Vietnam Veterans. The parade showcased the veterans, marching bands, city & county officials and others. It was thrilling to see the Ft. Campbell Skydivers jumping with the American Flag, Vietnam Veterans Flag, and the POW Flag. After the parade, the students enjoyed a picnic on this beautiful day.

 

4th Grade FUSE

FUSE Social Studies students celebrated Constitution Day with a QR Code iPad research activity. Through this activity they learned about the history of the Constitution, and the Government it outlined for America.

Box Tops & Campbell’s Labels

This is a reminder that CA collects Campbell’s labels and Box Tops through our CAA. The money raised from this project funds various school improvement projects. Last year we raised over $2000 through the Box Tops program alone! Please turn yours into your child’s teacher or Ms. Turnage in the front office.
