6th grade students had fun in science exploring sound vibrations through string cup “telephones”. Most students had never heard of these “telephones” so it was nice to get the students off electronics and getting them into hands on learning.
Please share.
The red poppy is a symbol of remembrance and hope. Today, our Kindergarten students learned how to honor those who have served.
You could say we have some little turkeys in Kindergarten....
First Grade students (and all of us at Washington Elementary) appreciate and thank our service members.
Attention elementary basketball players - please note.

Mrs. Toth's 2nd grade class along with their Reading Buddies from Miss Jarvela's 6th grade class collaborated with Mrs. Billie's 2nd grade class at Wakefield Marenisco.
Both groups read "How to Catch a Monster". Each group wrote a description of their "monster". This description was then exchanged by the 2nd grade classes. They then used the descriptions to make a monster.
Awesome job by both groups!
A few pictures of our Halloween fun day at Washington Elementary

More Halloween fun in Kindergarten with pumpkin seed pumpkins.
More 1st Grade Halloween fun with jack-o-lanterns.

Feel free to attend our monthly school board meetings.
Students in Mrs. Thull's kindergarten class are learning about the ocean. What better way then to explore a pirate ship and treasure chest full of sea theme books.
There were some pretty spooky ghosts seen at Washington Elementary this morning!
