Today, students in Ms. DeKok's room celebrated National Hot Cocoa Day by enjoying a warm mug of hot cocoa, while doing some holiday activities.
With the cool temperatures coming, we might have to make everyday, Hot Cocoa Day!

Daily reading groups are a big focus at East Elementary.
Students participate in whole group learning and assignments, but each day teachers will pull different reading groups to work with their students in a small group setting.
Small-group instruction provides opportunities for differentiated learning. With the smaller number of students, students have more chances to answer questions and read aloud. Teachers are also able to monitor the students better and can provide better and ore individualized support.

Shout-Out to the Boys' Basketball Team for helping organize and pack food for the Back Pack Program for our Elementary and Middle School students.
After school on Wednesday the team spent time helping staff get the bags ready for the holiday break.
We are thankful for their help, as well as our local donors and the Food Bank of Iowa that help make this program possible for some of our families in our district.

There will be NO SCHOOL due to weather on Tuesday, December 13.
Kindergarten through 4th Grade students at East Elementary are learning about simple acts of kindness in Mrs. Hennings' Guidance Classes. Students have been talking about how they can make someone's day better by a simple gesture, smile, talking to someone that looks sad, or even sending someone something to brighten their day.
Students are currently working on making holiday cards for the soldiers that are unable to make it home for the holiday season. Their hope is to make them smile and be happy, even if they can't make it home during the holiday season.

Our district had the opportunity to have two student teachers during the first semester of the school year. Ms. Klein was placed in our 4 Year Old Preschool this fall and will transition to one of our 1st Grade classrooms after Christmas. Mr. Ziemen did half of his placement in our 5th Grade Science Class and then transitioned to our 7th and 8th Grade Math classes.
Both have been great additions to their classrooms and have learned so much about teaching and connecting with our students.
We wish them the best in their future careers.
