Throwback Thursday 1/26/2014

Exeter-Milligan Speech students Amber Pribyl and Toni Bossaller recently competed at the Concordia University High School Speech Classic on January 25th. Pribyl placed 4th in Humorous Prose. Bossaller, a senior, received awards in two events; 5th place in Impromptu speaking and 6th in Poetry interpretation. 

Judy Kassik’s kindergarten students at Exeter-Milligan are working on combining sets by counting while playing a dice game during math time. They are also enjoying a fruit chew snack from Nurse Pribyl. The kindergarten class also assisted the sophomore health class in learning how to save a choking child.

Exeter-Milligan elementary students celebrated being 100 days smarter on Friday, January 24^th.  The kindergarten and first grade classrooms filled their day with special one hundred counting activities to commemorate the 100^th day of school.

 

The first grade class started many of their 100^th day projects long before the celebration on Friday.  They drew life size pictures of Exeter-Milligan faculty and staff members as they pictured them at the age of 100. 

 

Students were encouraged to dress up like 100 year olds for the day sporting canes, glasses and gray hair.  In class they made special unique t-shirts with the representation of 100 items on them.  

 

Each first grader brought a special project that they created at home which involved creating a display of 100 items.  There were rose petals, sequins, buttons a timberwolf made from q-tips, a student’s name spelled in 100 lights along with Legos and pasta.

 

The first graders also made a giant cookie that 100 candies mixed in and played lots of games using their counting skills throughout the day.

 

At the end of the day the second graders joined the kindergarten and first graders and they all popped 100 balloons in the hallway.
