Ahoy, CRES Family! 🏴‍☠️⚓️

Our Q1 Accelerated Reader (AR) Pirate Party was an absolute blast! Yesterday, our amazing AR readers set sail on a high-seas celebration to reward all of their hard work and reading achievements this quarter. 📖✨

Our upper and lower elementary students had a whale of a time rotating through fun-filled game stations:
🏴‍☠️ Upper Elementary Pirates battled it out in "The Great Treasure Steal", "Pirate Ship Battle", and listened closely during "Captain's Orders"!
⚓️ Lower Elementary Swashbucklers showed off their skills in "Walk the Plank", "Musical Island", and "Swab the Deck"!

Everyone made a stop at the Shipwreck Snack Shack for delicious treats, drinks, cool temporary tattoos, and awesome stickers! 🍿🧃🎨

A HUGE Dolphin Thank You 🐬 to our wonderful specials teachers for running the game stations, and to our amazing POD parents for manning the snack and treat station! We couldn't make events like this happen without your support and energy.

Keep up the incredible reading, Dolphins! Who’s ready to set sail for Q2 goals? 📚🏆

Get ready for one of our favorite events of the year—the 4th Annual Vocabulary Parade! 🎊🎓📝

It’s time to bring big, creative words to life! Mark your calendars for Thursday, October 22nd, and start brainstorming your costume. We encourage all students, faculty, and staff to join in on the fun!

🌟 How to Participate:
Choose Your Word: Pick an interesting, unusual, or exciting vocabulary word that will stretch everyone's vocabulary!

Plan Your Costume: Create a outfit that illustrates your word. Simple, homemade costumes made from recycled household items are fantastic! 🎨✂️

Display Your Word: Make a large, easy-to-read sign or card with your chosen word AND its definition clearly visible. You can wear it as a headband or hat, carry it, or incorporate it directly into your costume so everyone can read it as you march.

💡 Pro-Tip for Costume Brainstorming:
Feeling stuck? We recently send home a letter with resource for ideas. Try starting with a favorite costume or storybook character first, then match a clever vocabulary word to it! You can also check Pinterest or search "Vocabulary Parade Ideas" online for tons of visual inspiration. 🔍✨

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Parents & Families: You are warmly invited to attend and cheer on our parade walk! We can't wait to see all of the creative costumes on display!

Last week was GA Pre-K week in Georgia! Our Pre-K classes celebrated by wearing shirts with words, dressing as our favorite book characters, wearing our favorite colors, and wearing our silly hats. Each student received their own copy of this year's book "Every Amazing Story" by Coy Bowles and Malcolm Mitchell. We listened to them read it to us and danced to the song they wrote for the book!

🐮 Meet our newest (and cutest) classmate! 🌾

Our Art/Ag class just "adopted" a calf through Discover Dairy’s Adopt a Cow program! Over the next few months, we’ll be following her growth, learning all about dairy farming, and seeing where our food comes from. She is a Holstein dairy cow, and her name is Waffle Fry. She is from the Big Sandy Creek Dairy Farm in Madison, Georgia. We are excited to watch her grow, stay tuned for updates!!!

Bon Appétit, young readers! 📚✨

Our 3rd graders stepped into the Raley Moon Cafe today for an unforgettable Book Tasting!

Dressed in full chef attire, our 3rd-grade teachers served up a delicious menu full of literary flavors. Each table featured a different genre—from fiction to non-fiction, poetry, biographies, realistic fiction and thrilling mysteries to captivating historical fiction.

Students rotated from table to table, "tasting" new books, sampling first pages, and filling out their menu review cards to find their next favorite read. Seeing their eyes light up with every new discovery was the highlight of our day!

Check out a few snapshots from our special reading cafe below! 👇
