Hello Families,
You are invited to attend the Northeast Iowa Family STEM Festival on Thursday, April 28 from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at Regents Center at Luther College in Decorah. The festival is free and open to students and their families.
The goals of the festival are to promote, inspire and engage youth in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) activities and to introduce children and parents to STEM careers in their local communities.
If you are interested in attending, make sure to print the registration form that was sent to all Seesaw accounts this morning.
The Iowa Students for Tobacco Education and Prevention (ISTEP) group presented the dangers of tobacco use to the PreK-6th grades at St. Joes. The ISTEP group of 13 picked a grade and worked hard at finding age appropriate material to get their message about the dangers of tobacco use across to those students. The ISTEP students did a fantastic job of presenting this information to the lower grades in a fun and informative manner.
We also were very fortunate to have Chief Nosbisch talk to all of our students about personal safety. Thank you Chief Nosbisch! The kids love seeing you in the building!!
The fourth graders are learning about energy today. The goal is not to allow the marble to get into the alligators mouth!
1st and 2nd grade got the chance to travel to Gallagher Bluedorn to watch Rosie Revere Engineer and Friends. What a great learning opportunity for our students!
Mrs. Heying's 4th grade class and the Lent committee wanted to raise money for the new Inclusive playground that will be at Runion Park. They decided to host a movie after school. From this fundraiser along with some money from the parish, we were able to present a check to Maggie and Jenny who are Inclusive Park committee members for $674.72.
In Computer Science today the 3rd graders learned about conditionals through a card game and ended up creating their own. The 7th and 8th grade students continued working on creating HTML code for a website centered on something that is important to them or they personally enjoy.
