Jr. High Students:
Don't forget today is jersey day. Cardinals and Packers jerseys are highly discouraged by Mr. Nichols!
Kyler and Ryker Smith helped Mr. Dennison hang an outdoor choice board for our Henry-Stark Life Skills Program on the Elementary Playground. The board, provided by Henry-Stark, will allow students to communicate more effectively with staff and students while playing outside.
4th grade students have been working hard practicing their recorder instruments. Shown are students working together in groups clapping and counting, and saying notes or names and then playing it on the recorder.
Wethersfield's Elementary PE teacher, Mr. Keane, was a guest reader in Mrs. Anderson's library class last week. The students loved it!
Kindergarten enjoyed accompanying a song with boomwhackers during music class. Some students even got to use the tallest boomwhacker.
