🌟📚 Happy (Belated!) Instructional Coach Day to the AMAZING Mrs. Christy Stevens! 📚🌟
We may be a day late, but we couldn’t let Instructional Coach Day pass without celebrating someone who gives 110% to TWO schools every single day!
Mrs. Stevens serves both Rodgers Elementary and Jamesville Elementary, and her impact is everywhere! She is incredibly knowledgeable about curriculum and instruction, her teachers’ #1 supporter, our Odyssey of the Mind coach, and the creative mind behind the beautiful adult-learning spaces at both schools. She also brings FUN to learning with i-Ready competitions that get students AND teachers excited! 🎉📚
Whatever is needed, she is there, and she gives it her all! ❤️
Thank you, Mrs. Stevens, for ALL you do for our students, teachers, and schools! Rodgers and Jamesville are so lucky to have you on BOTH teams! 🌟👏📚

👻✏️ Spooky Writing Fun to Start October! ✏️👻
Our CUBS kicked off October by putting their descriptive writing skills and imaginations to work! Students listened to eerie music, studied a picture, and wrote what they could see and hear. 🎶📝
Each week, students challenge themselves to write more than the week before! They write live in teams, then read, vote, and discuss the writing as a class.
The engagement says it all! You could have heard a pin drop! 🤫👏 We love seeing our CUBS so excited about writing! 💙🐻

🐻🚫 Friendly Reminder for Our Rodgers Families! 🚫🐻
Please help us by reminding our CUBS to leave toys at home!
This is especially important for squishies! While they are lots of fun at home, when they break or tear, the filling can create a BIG mess in classrooms, backpacks, and on clothing. 😬
Keeping toys at home also helps prevent distractions and keeps them from being lost or damaged.
Thank you, Rodgers families, for your help and support! 💙🐻🐾
Happy National School Custodian Day to Mrs. Peele and Mr. Grant!
Happy Principal Appreciation Month to Mrs. Manning! 💙💛 We are so thankful for Mrs. Manning and the love she pours into Rodgers Elementary! 🐻💙
Here are the October breakfast and lunch menus!
✏️📚 Our 4th grade CUBS worked with partners to analyze paragraphs and identify the important parts of strong writing: topic sentence, supporting details, transition words, and a conclusion sentence. 📝✨ Breaking writing apart helps students understand how to put it all together! 💙🐻
🌟Building Positive Connections! 🌟
This month, our students learned more about their school counselor, Mrs. Byrum, and how she can support them throughout their school experience. Students focused on identifying their school counselor and learning at least one way she can help them. 💙
The lesson also focused on students building positive relationships with trusted adults, developing positive attitudes toward work and learning, and strengthening their self-awareness, all important skills for school success!
📚 This month’s lesson featured Mrs. Stokes’ Third Grade homeroom, with a little extra help from our wonderful 5th-grade student helpers: Raina , Eli, and Eva-Mae. Thank you for helping make learning fun and meaningful for our younger students!
We’re proud to help our students grow academically, socially, and emotionally, one positive connection at a time! 🌱✨

Our Rodgers Elementary band students are learning their first notes under the guidance of Mrs. Fay! 🎺🎶 We love seeing their excitement as they learn to play their instruments, and we can’t wait to hear their first concert! 💙
🍂🎨 Celebrating the First Day of Fall in STEAM! 🎨🍂
Our Rodgers CUBS welcomed fall with a little Science AND Art! Students learned about the changes we begin to see in fall, including why leaves change colors and fall from the trees. 🍁
Then, they created Salt Leaf Paintings and watched as the watercolors quickly spread through the salt! Students learned that salt absorbs the water like a sponge, causing the colors to spread. 🎨🔬
A colorful way to see science in action! 💙🐻🍂
