Mrs. Shahan's class had a little fun with Halloween science making "Witches Brew". Students tried mixing different kitchen ingredients with "Troll Saliva"(vinegar) to see if their brew would bubble. We found out that "Crushed Dragon's Teeth" (baking soda) causes a bubbling reaction.
Mrs Ballengee’s class made pumpkins using a balloon, yarn, and glue. Their pumpkins turned out so good!
Next week is Book Fair Week! Students will shop during Mrs. Sanders’ gym time.

Wood County Schools has made a change regarding the caller ID number for all mass calls and texts in which we want you to be aware. Previously, all mass calls made from Wood County Schools, used for emergencies or other important information, whether from the central office or from any individual school, used the number (304) 420-9520 for the caller ID. Starting today, all school mass calls will show a caller ID number that is the same as the school's main telephone number. District calls will continue to show a caller ID of (304) 420-9520. The caller ID number for any individual school may be verified by visiting the school's webpage and finding the phone number in the footer of the page.

❤️🏈💙 Our Bobcats sported their blue today at school for the big game.
Mrs.McDonald and Mr. Blanc’s 4th grade classes had a fun lesson on Idioms this week! They learned that an idiom is a word expression in which the meaning is figurative, not literal. For example: The game had me on pins and needles…..just means I was anxious about the game, not that I was literally on pins and needles.These classes were given an assignment to choose their favorite idiom and they had to dress up like or act it out.They did an awesome job with this assignment and had a great time with it too.Even our teachers and administrators got involved! Here were just a few from the day.See if you can guess what each one is.
