Thank you Elsberry FFA for hosting Farm Safety Day. Our students learned so many things during their visit last Friday.

Save the date for the Elsberry FFA Trunk or Treat. It will be Sunday, October 30. More details and times will be shared closer to the date.


Mrs. Kaimann's class made Chica Chica trees last week during foodie fun Friday. Students practiced listening to and following directions, as well as trying new foods.





Let's be Team Players on Evaluate Day! Dress in your favorite team attire on Friday, October 7.


Work first, then play is something you might hear one of our staff members say during the day. Mrs. Marshall's class always enjoys the playground.





Learning can take multiple repetitions. One way third graders recently practiced place value was by playing tic-tac-toe in Mrs. Speers' classroom.

Mrs. Marshall uses flashlight Friday to make reading more exciting! What a great way to encourage reading for enjoyment.





Coach Edwards is always on the go. She is one of the few staff members who works in all three of our buildings in addition to being a coach. Welcome to Elsberry!


In Mrs. Robinson's classroom students are learning about flexible vs rigid thinking. Friday they were only given a specific set of materials (no glue, tape, etc) and had to use their “flexible thinking” to build a bridge.



What are teachers doing today at CCE? We are participating in our first session of LETRS training. This is a two year commitment for our staff.
LETRS teaches the skills needed to master the fundamentals of reading instruction—phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, writing, and language.





Fourth graders made scientific observations of an object in motion to provide evidence that a pattern can be used to predict a future motion. They made Twist-O-Matics and worked with a partner to make observations and predictions.- Mrs. Yates
