🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸
Today, Coleman Elementary welcomed Veterans of students and staff, and honored them during a special assembly. Ms. Wood performed our National
Anthem beautifully and our assembly speakers did a great job honoring our Veterans.
A special highlight was the MCJROTC Drill Team from Pacific High School. They performed an Armed Exhibition and Color Guard.
It was incredibly special to see some of our former Coleman Alumni.









Last week, Ms. Jones' class started learning about Colonial Times. They talked about all different types of tradespeople, and went in depth on bakers and millers. They learned about the bread making process and compared it to today’s bread making process. To end the lesson students made their very own bread! Learning is fun!









So many wonderful events this week.
Be sure to check them out.




Mrs. Fingers' preschool class had a great time on their field trip to Heartland Farms. The kids went on their first school bus ride, picked out a pumpkin, visited the farm animals, played in the corn pit and on the slides. So much fun!










🏛️ Second Grade News! 🥔
Second grade has officially finished Domain 3 in Knowledge: “Ancient Greek Civilizations”! To celebrate all they’ve learned about the Olympic Games, they hosted their very own Potato Olympics!
From “dancing” to “gymnastics ,” students had a blast showing off their teamwork and creativity — just like the ancient Greeks! 🇬🇷🏅







Last week, Ms. Mathew's third grade class participated in a fun pumpkin math activity. Students had a fun time guessing how many seeds their pumpkin had. They sorted the seeds into groups of 10 for easy counting.. then realized there was a lot more than they thought!








It was a "Spooktacular" Halloween Yesterday! So many cute, creative, and scary costumes. Students and staff had a great time.

Today, our students and staff kicked off Red Ribbon Week by wearing red.
We also had a visit from Deputy Stack and police dog, Kilo. They helped kick off RRW by speaking with the kids about healthy choices and what Kilo does for his job.










So many fun things this week!


When Mr. Savage came to Ms. Mathew's room for his weekly check in, the students persuaded him to stay for a little while.
Mr. Savage read from their Social Studies magazine and taught them about the Statue of Liberty and Lady Justice. They loved to have him as a special guest reader!


Congratulations to Justin, Macey, Luke, River, and Hunter. These students are being highlighted this week for demonstrating Responsibility, Kindness, Teamwork, and using Problem Solving.
Super proud of our Warriors!




It's School Bus Safety Week!
Last week, our students participated in bus evacuations. Bus drivers demonstrated to students what they need to do in case of an emergency. Students learned how to use the radio, where the emergency exits are located, and practiced exiting the bus.







Last week, our 3rd grade traveled to the historic Daniel Boone Home in Defiance, Missouri. Students and teachers had first hand experience in what pioneer living was like back in the day. They learned about wood working, the different types of animal tracks and furs, and experienced what school was like long ago in a one room schoolhouse.
