Dewar Fall Festival and Raffle!!
Parents stepped back into the classroom and became scientists for the day during 5th Grade Parent Day! 🔬 They got a glimpse of the exciting learning happening in our science classrooms and even took part in an experiment to observe signs of a chemical change. From bubbling reactions to lively discussions, it was a wonderful reminder that the joy of learning is a lifelong journey - no matter your age, there's always something new to discover. 🌟🔍
Mrs. King’s class practiced subtraction within 20 using ten frames today! We even used candy corn to add a little fall fun to our learning! 🎃🍁
Mrs. Hanson’s 5th-graders brought science to life through exciting, hands-on experiences as they explored physical and chemical changes! From launching film canisters into the air to investigating clues and solving crimes, and even making s’mores to see reactions in action, students discovered that science is all around us—and learning can be both explosive and sweet!
Don't forget the Dewar Book Character Contest on Friday, October 31! You must have a book to go with your book character.

Friday, our amazing SRO, Deputy Bair, was helping a student deliver papers to Ms. Swopes’ second-grade class when we had a surprise for her — the HOT SEAT! We invited her to play one of our new favorite games, which we enjoy during Morning Meeting on Fridays.
Deputy Bair had to sit in the chair (no peeking at the board behind her) and call on students to give her clues about the mystery picture. The room was full of giggles, and so many creative hints from our second graders! Deputy Bair was such a good sport, and we loved seeing her join in on our fun!
