🎷 🎶 🎷 Happy National Saxophone Day! 🎷 🎶 🎷
On November 6th, Saxophone Day celebrates the birth of Adolphe Sax, the saxophone inventor, born in 1814 in Belgium. Mr. Sax received a 15-year patent in 1846 for 14 different designs of the saxophone, which have become an essential woodwind in various music genres, from classical to jazz.

🎶 🎵 🎼 In honor of our 1st concert of the 2024-25 school year this past Tuesday, we are 'throwing it' WAY back to Clayton's 1st orchestra from 1921! 🎶 🎵 🎼


🚀 🧑🔬 Thursday, October 24th proved to be an exciting day for five second graders at CESA #11 in Turtle Lake. The school was invited to bring five students to the event, which was a fun-packed day full of education and creativity.
The Science Museum of Minnesota sent a representative to share what engineering is and engaged the students in the process of engineering. The process of engineering is a cycle of events that begins with ASK/ IMAGINE, PLAN, INVESTIGATE, IMPROVE, then begins again with ASKING what needs to be done to modify or re-design. Students were shown that many things in our lives were engineered, not just technology as some people think. For example, scissors were engineered because of a need.
Students were given materials and an open-ended task of building a rocket using the materials set before them. Then, students went outside to launch the rockets using three different degrees of launch pads. A re-designing station was set up for the students who chose to redesign. 🚀🧑🔬
Several stations were set out for students to work at that contained different challenges. The students had a fantastic time and represented Clayton well! 💜 💛
