From Mesopotamia to Egypt, Mrs. Keller and Mrs. Littler's students have been quite a band of historical globetrotters lately! Today, they worked on Hieroglyphics, which is an Ancient Egyptian way of writing using symbols!
If you look closely at Camden Elementary School, you’ll find there are some new friends brightening up the property! Thanks to grant funding and the generosity of the Camden Elementary PTO, seven brand new Red Maple trees have been planted on the premises. As they grow, they’ll provide enhanced greenery and shade around the school building.
The trees were carefully planted by DNC Landscaping, Inc., one of Camden’s very own small businesses. The company is owned by Camden Elementary School alumni Nick and Kassidy Britton, and fellow alumnus Aaron Storace also works with the company. Some younger members of our CES Community also turned up to help with planting! In these pictures, you’ll see third graders Kyler Britton and Emilia Salmon, kindergartners Reid and Luke Platt, and second grader Harper Smith!
Thanks to the DNC team and the Camden Elementary School PTO for their efforts, which will leave a lasting impression on the CES campus!
Mrs. Keller and Mrs. Littler's class made some Mesopotamian-style Cuneiforms for their unit on early world civilizations! Cuneiforms are an ancient system of written communication using symbols!
On Monday, nonfiction author Kevin Kurtz visited McConnellsville and Camden Elementary schools. In his books you can find information about animal habitats, science, nature, and more!

Many of his books can be found in the elementary school libraries if your student is interested in learning more!

Wednesday, November 13th was World Kindness Day! In honor of the occasion, a local small business, Two Broke Besties, sponsored a bracelet giveaway for an educator who makes a difference in the community, and our own Stephanie Kowalski was selected!
She was able to gift each of her 3rd graders at CES a set of bracelets in hopes to inspire them to be kind, helpful, positive and thoughtful. The students were full of smiles when they received a bracelet with their name and a kind message. A special thank you to the Two Broke Besties team for their constant support of our students, for sharing their incredible talents, and helping to spread love and kindness by doing such a generous giveaway!

It's been an exciting week in classrooms at Camden Middle School and Camden Elementary School as we get started on this year's "Trout in the Classroom" program!

This wonderful program is sponsored by the two clubs, and teaches our students valuable lessons about local wildlife.
