An "Out of this World" Field Trip at the Planetarium!
Today our 3rd Grade Wildcats joined other North Platte 3rd graders to learn about constellations and planets. If you have a 3rd grader, check in with them to see if they can teach you something new!
Wildcat Spotlight Teacher Dayyyyyy!
Each week, students can vote 2 times for a teacher or staff member they think is GREAT! Boy are the votes pouring in. This week's Spotlight Teacher is Mrs. Blackburn! This is her first year at Washington and she is a strong Special Ed leader at our school. Students said she helps them when they have problems and she is so nice!
Congrats, Mrs. Blackburn! Keep getting your teach on!!

I spy with my little eye... WILDCAT READERS!
How many readers can you spy in Mrs. McIntosh's 4th Grade BEAR time?
BEAR = Be Excited About Reading!
When the short Minion video comes on, students immediately know they get free reading time. Each day, 6 random student numbers are called; they are allowed to choose one of the special inflatables or couch for their BEAR time.
Check out Facebook comments for a bonus video to see it in action! I want to be a 4th grader!

Happy Friday!!! This week's Spotlight Teacher of the Week is 3rd Grade's Mrs. Sack!! Students said she's the smartest teacher in the world, pretty, has kind words, and is a great teacher. Congratulations, Mrs. Sack!! Keep getting your teach on!!
GREEN ZONE IS....READY TO GO!
What does that mean? Ask your kids!! After the last two weeks, your kiddo should be able to teach you all about the Zones of Regulation!!
We're learning how to handle our emotions - big and small - in healthy ways.
Check-in with your kids and ask them to teach you!! Then, please share your family skills and quotes below!
Example: One skill to calm down when upset (yellow zone) is to do some box breathing.
These pictures are our 4th and 5th graders putting on skits to teach the zones! We have quite the drama crew!! ~ Mrs. Simmons

From the Washington Preschool Times!
“Today the Preschoolers got to pretend to be 'surgeons’ and cut up Playdoh into multiple pieces. A big thank you to Great Plains Health for donating gowns, hair nets, gloves, and masks for Miss Folchert’s class. They can all be excellent doctors one day!” - Miss Folchert
Attention, Wildcats!! Last week's SPOTLIGHT TEACHER was none other than 2nd grade's Mrs. Burford!
