Chenango Forks Central Elementary School

In November, Mrs. Masters and Mrs. McBreen accompanied twenty fourth grade students to participate in Engineering Day at Broome-Tioga BOCES. Working in small teams, students synergized to plan, build, test, and perfect a design for a functioning Rube Goldberg machine using everyday materials such as spoons, modeling clay, dominoes, etc.. The mission was to have a ball enter a cup. These students represented CFE well and had a great time doing it! 

The CFE Robotics Club began the year with fourth and fifth grade students. During their weekly meetings, club members synergized to code a variety of robots, including the club's newest robot, Sphero RVR+. The club would not have been able to put these robots into the hands of students without the generosity of CAE, a local technology company who specializes in flight simulators. At their final meeting, guest engineers from CAE came to speak to members about the world of engineering and their experiences within the field.

Students had a wonderful time visiting the library during the CFE Open House. One of the highlights was the special “Shelfie Station”, a photo spot where students and their families could take pictures next to their favorite shelf or book.

With fun signs and pictures of beloved book characters, the station was full of smiles, laughter, and lots of literary excitement! We loved that so many families stopped by to share in the joy of reading and celebrate our library together.

We can’t wait for more fun adventures with books this year!
