Mrs. Windhorst's class spent most of the month studying apples. They wrote about how they are 'apple-solutely' amazing. They also did a science experiment where they made predictions and observations about how different liquids and substances would keep red and green apples from turning brown. They also made apple pie in a cup and talked about following a recipe, measuring, and sequencing steps. Then they made predictions and recorded their data!
After reading Jack and the Beanstalk, they also worked on making estimates and adjusting their estimates based on prior knowledge. They got to make estimates then work with beans in small groups to make groups of ones, tens, and hundreds to find how many beans we had as a class. They also played how many more, how many fewer, where they compared their amount to those of their classmates.
They also were able to pet a brand new (less than a day old) calf and try some of Kuehnert's flavored milks!
They learned a lot about this local farm and were able to enjoy the fall festival after the tour.
We have our first Teacher In-Service Day.
Enjoy your longer weekend, Eagles!
This week is College GO! Week at Coesse Elementary! 🏫✨
Even though our elementary students are still a few years away from graduation, it’s never too early to start dreaming big and exploring the amazing possibilities waiting for their futures.
Throughout the week, our classrooms will be talking about:
🛠️ The cool jobs and careers we can have when we grow up
🏛️ Different colleges, trade schools, and training programs
🌟 The hard work and learning it takes to reach our goals
We will be having a dress up week to celebrate
College GO! Week 9/21-9/24
It’s hard to believe we’re already more than halfway through September! Northern Heights recently shared photos of a couple of the lunches served this week, and we’re happy to showcase the great work happening behind the scenes.
A BIG thank-you to all of our dedicated food service staff for their commitment to providing nutritious meals and keeping our students fueled throughout the day.

Students practiced identifying character traits and understanding the difference between character traits and character feelings.
Finally, they put their learning into practice by using character traits to describe one another.
