Weaverville Elementary

Mrs. Berzinski's class has been learning about the life cycle of a chicken. We learned about the process of incubating chicken eggs in our classroom. On day 21, our classroom came alive with excitement and wonder as we welcomed one of our chicks into the world! Children with baby chicks are one of the cutest things on earth!

In the final Wit & Wisdom module of the year, second graders learn all about the digestive system. Students in Mrs. Brown’s class got to make digestion happen right in front of their eyes. With the help of a little food and lemon juice, students simulated the process of food traveling through the mouth, stomach and intestines

We had an amazing day celebrating the achievements of our Special Olympics athletes! See more photos in the "news" section.

As Mrs. Ingle’s class prepares for module 4 in Wit and Wisdom, the students participated in a book tasting. They shared their feelings about each text and made a prediction about what they would be learning in the upcoming module.

THANK YOU, PTO for gifting the WVES office the cabinets for clothes and the plastic "pencil" containers that we will use for medicine for students. Thank you for your generosity and always making sure our school is taken care of. ~Front Office

Thanks to our AMAZING PTO, Ms. Emily was able to start a sensory item closet! So many students need timers to aid in transitions, objects they can fidget with in class, and noise dimming headphones and now their teachers can check them out from the sensory closet in Ms. Emily’s room to use for the year. Noise dimming headphones and chewlery are by far the most popular! Ms. Emily and many kids want to say a huge THANK YOU to the PTO for this great opportunity!!!!
