Thank you to Miss Henderson's class for leading our Rise and Shine Assembly today for students in PreK-2nd grade. The focus of this assembly was on the habit "Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood." Students learned it is important listen first, then speak. Congratulations to our students who are "Leading The Way" this week!
On Thursday, students in grades 3-5 were visited by Mr. Whipple and his "Burble, Fizz, Kaboom!" presentation. In this playful performance, Mr. Whipple teaches about chemical reactions, solutions, molecules, and phase changes with a great sense of humor and with a lot of help from the audience! The program was a fun and informative introduction to science that gets students actively involved in the basics of chemistry while creating a good clean mess!
In February our fourth-grade students participated in an Ag in the Classroom with Cornell Cooperative Extension, where they learned about foods eaten during colonial times. Students explored how early settlers relied on locally grown ingredients and simple cooking methods. The highlight of the lesson was tasting hasty pudding, a traditional colonial dish made from cornmeal.
Thank you for Mr. Bender for hosting our Rise and Shine Assembly today for our PreK-2nd grade students. The focus of this assembly was on how to be an empathetic listener. Congratulations to our students who were recognized for "Leading The Way" this week!
Therapy Dog Visits CFE! Recently, Mrs. Jones has been visiting classrooms at CFE with Phoebe, her Goldendoodle therapy dog. This week, they made another round of visits and students had a wonderful time meeting Phoebe. While visiting the classrooms, students learned about the difference between therapy dogs, guide dogs and rescue dogs. Students were able to ask Mrs. Jones questions about Phoebe and learn how a therapy dog can help someone who is feeling anxious or nervous.
A big thank you to Mrs. Jones and Phoebe for spending time with our students!

Last night, the Chenango Forks Elementary Student Council proudly presented to the Board of Education, sharing their recent community initiatives!
Accompanied by Mrs. Johnson, our grades 3-5 student leaders highlighted their recent projects, including making holiday cards for Veterans, collecting cold-weather items (hats, mittens, socks) for the Chenango Forks Holiday Basket Program, creating Valentine’s Day cards for community members and collaborating with administration on recess rooms.
It was wonderful to see our young leaders display the work they are doing in our community!

The CFE library recently had a wonderful visit from our 4th grade reading buddies who came to spend time with our PreK students. Our 4th grade readers showed incredible patience and kindness while reading to our youngest learners. They engaged the PreK students by making their books interactive, bringing smiles and laughter to our PreK students, while helping foster a love for books and reading. The 4th grade students also served as fantastic role models. They built relationships with the younger students, while also boosting their own confidence as readers. We can't wait to have them back for another opportunity to connect and learn together!
Thank you to Mrs. Masters' class for leading our Rise and Shine Assembly today for our PreK-2nd grade students. We would also like to thank Erin Sarandis from Animal Adventure for being our special guest today. Erin shared with us details about her career at Animal Adventure. Congratulations to our students who are "Leading The Way" this week!
