Hello Families! This year we have an exciting new resource called the Family Room that will help you gain an understanding of what your child may be working on in school. The Family Room is divided into three sections: Getting Started includes general tips on how to navigate Ed. Program Support includes resources and strategies that I'll be introducing to your child during class, as well as suggestions for how you can support your child at home. Finally, check out Shareables for quick tips about the challenges that many parents experience, like getting their children to talk about their learning. View this quick video to learn more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWUC4_MjwVU

The Beaverton Elementary Book Fair will be open today during the parent teacher conference times. Please take a moment to stop in a pick out a great book!!

Beaverton Elementary: Dear families, at this time we are putting a hold on having volunteers in our classrooms and building. While we appreciate all of your support and are looking forward to having you help us again soon, we do feel the need to hold off for a short time. This is mostly as a precautionary method to minimize the transition of Covid-19 that we are currently experiencing. We are hopeful this will resume again soon. Tomorrow morning we will be making more decisions regarding our parent teacher conferences, veterans day assembly, and upcoming field trips. I will share more information tomorrow regarding these. For now, please continue to screen your child prior to school and keep them home if they are symptomatic. If you have any questions please contact our elementary office tomorrow. Thank you, Renee

EGG DROP EXPERIMENT!! While this super fun activity has the chance of becoming quite a messy disaster, the kids of course LOVE it! Gooey egg yolk and all! The Egg Drop Experiment is an excellent way of encouraging children to use logic, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, making it a highly educational activity. Check out the video that Mrs. Sawyer put together to showcase our 4th graders and their successes and messes! https://youtu.be/ctYzXOBSQ9c

October is Fire Prevention month and we are happy to be able to learn about fire safety from our local fire department crew! Our kindergarten classes were able to visit and tour the fire department last week while our first grade classes received a special visit here at school from a few fireman. 3 valuable lessons were learned: check for working smoke detectors, stay low and yell for help, and clean your room!! If you need more information on fire safety please contact our Beaverton Fire Department. A special thanks to our fire crew for helping to educate our students!
