🎶 🎵 🎼 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! 💜 💛
🎶 Feelings, whoa, oh, oh, feelings! 🎶

👏 👏 On Saturday, October 26th, the Prairie Farm/Clayton Junior High football team wrapped up their season with a small banquet at the Prairie Farm School. Following the banquet, the coaches and players traveled to UW-Stout to watch the Blue Devils take on the Blugolds of UW-Eau Claire. The Blue Devils won the game 42-24 in front of a nice crowd for their Homecoming. It was a great way to wrap up the first season of PFC football!💜💚

🗞️ 📣 September's Spotlight Student for Middle School was Jameson Weber! 🗞️ 📣
"Leader and role model” are the words that come to mind when I hear Jameson’s name. A leader is defined as the person who leads or commands a group and a role model is a person looked to by others as an example to be imitated. Ms. Magler shares that, “Jameson is a leader in his class. He shows respect for teachers, staff, and his peers. Students listen to him when he redirects or helps them with what they are working on. He is constantly thinking while we are reading or he is listening in order to add to the class discussion. He has great ideas! He is willing to ask questions to clarify his learning which in turn helps his peers to better understand what is being discussed. Jameson has a positive attitude and is very caring. He is unselfish, wanting what is best for the whole class or group he is working with, rather than only looking for individual gains.” Keep up the great work, Jameson! 👏
🥧🍽️ Should I have apple crisp for breakfast? No.
Do I turn it down when Evelynn, Kylee, and Alaina from the Healthy Cooking class stop by and offer? Also no.
Thanks for sharing, ladies!
P.S. It has apples and oatmeal, so that's healthy!
