FES 4th graders are in for a special treat! Monday, December 19th, they will be hearing from a special guest, Miss Mississippi, Emmie Perkins! She will be speaking to 4th graders about the dangers of tobacco as a representative of the Tar Wars Anti-Tobacco Campaign sponsored by the American Academy of Family Physicians. Emmie will also be sharing her platform, Music as Medicine, with some of the lower elementary students.
Learning can be fun! Mrs. Rangel and Mrs. Hardy's after-school tutoring group made root beer floats and composed an opinion writing piece on how they enjoyed their float. Their task required them to follow directions to assemble, taste, and complete their writing piece based on their opinion. The students really enjoyed their first-time experience of tasting root beer floats.
