Mrs. Whitt and Mrs. Persinger's third-grade class just finished a unit on the human body systems in English Language Arts (ELA). To practice their new skills, they transformed the classroom into an emergency room, with each student taking on the role of a medical professional. With patient files in hand, they checked on their patients, traveling through seven different stations to test their knowledge of the human body systems. They had a blast!
Spring Picture Day is Wednesday, March 19! Order forms will soon be sent home with students. You can also order online at mylifetouch.com using our Picture Day ID: EVT4Z626N.
Westfall Elementary Mustangs Student-Run Credit Union Members reached their annual goal of 300 deposits this school year! As a special treat for meeting the goal, three randomly selected members were chosen on Friday to enter the "Cash Reactor!"
The Cash Reactor works like a Game Show Money Booth. The three members have a 30-second round to enter the Reactor and catch as much flying cash as possible! Whatever "cash" (Atomic uses Monopoly money in the machine for safety reasons) the member catches will be generously donated to their account.
Congratulations to Mila Howland (Kindergarten), Cooper Dutcher (1st grade), and Brooklyn Steward (5th grade)! Their winnings spanned from $30 - $36!
Atomic Credit Union is always finding fun and inventive ways to reward our students' positive money habits. To learn more about starting an account for your student, please follow this link: https://rb.gy/76maky.
Our second-grade classes had some very special guests on Friday! Two amazing volunteers from the Pickaway County Dog Shelter and a Deputy Dog Warden stopped by to share their important work and gave students helpful tips on safely approaching a dog.
The highlight of the visit? Meeting Leia, an 8-year-old shelter guest who stole everyone's hearts! Thank you to our visitors for teaching the students about kindness and responsible pet interactions.
