The Agriculture elective class celebrated Thanksgiving by having some pie while watching some Thanksgiving Agriculture video clips. Students learned how Thanksgiving staples start at the farm and end up as part of our traditional feast. They heard about the cost of the traditional dinner per person. Students also learned about how farm chores don't stop just because it was a holiday.
Teachers have reading goals too! While in the library for our monthly library day, Mrs. Bloomquist and Mrs. Britton shared their upcoming reading goals with students, provided book recommendations, and supported students in making book decisions.
At CMS we ALL have FUN. That includes our teachers and administrators. Today we had a school wide staff Rock, Paper, Scissors game. The competition was intense and students enjoyed cheering for their favorite teachers to win! The winners were Mrs. Trnchik, Mr. Zahas and Mrs. Willson!
Students in Mrs. Johnson's reading class were busy working on some Thanksgiving crafts this afternoon. Stay tuned tomorrow to see what they created!

Landon said Four Eyes by Rex Ogle and Dave Valeza inspired him by seeing the other characters in the book give Rex compliments because of his glasses. The book taught me to always stand up for people and to be kind to someone.

CMS teachers are thankful for our awesome food service staff and delicious turkey dinners! We look forward to this day every year! Thank you!
Wednesday's Q&A session with Rick Yarosh of Sweethearts and Heroes was a wonderful experience for our CMS students!
The students got a chance to go back and forth with Rick on several topics that helped them understand his experiences. Rick, of Windsor, NY, was a five year veteran of the United States Army who had his life changed forever by an IED explosion during a tour of duty in Iraq. He travels to schools with his organization to spread his message of HOPE (Hold On, Possibilities Exist).
As an added bonus, we had the opportunity to see his Purple Heart up close and personal today, which is an especially powerful reminder of what it takes to serve with Veterans Day taking place over the weekend.
We would like to thank Rick and his associate Tom Murphy for spending the last two days with our students, and our students for being an incredibly supportive and engaged audience.
Faculty and Staff at CMS had the opportunity to meet with Tom Murphy and Rick Yarosh from Sweethearts and Heroes to follow up on the incredible presentations that our students saw. They learned that the #1 key to learning is having FUN!

Sixth grade students took a deep dive into character development by creating a character autopsy after reading, "The Secret Sheriff of Sixth Grade," by Jordan Sonnenblick. Students used their evidence to “dissect” the traits of a character and discover how the character evolved through the course of the story.
