Pirate Day in 2nd Grade!
Our 2nd graders enjoyed another room transformation this week. Our students walked into a classroom filled with pirate decor, pirate place value activities, and so much more! Our 2nd grade friends enjoyed making up new Pirate Names and collaborating with friends.
3rd Grade Field Trip!
Our 3rd grade students visited the Metro Park this week to learn about animal habitats and adaptations. Students learned about wildlife in Michigan, took a nature walk, and viewed an animal presentation.

Green Team!
In honor of America Recycles Day this Wednesday, the Green Team is asking our school to participate by creating a logo for Macomb County Green Schools, creating a video commercial about recycling, selling rolls of garbage bags to family & friends or play the recycling game at https://berecycled.org. Each roll of garbage bags sold earns us $5.50 to use towards our group t-shirts, spring clean up supplies and hopefully some items in the future to be more green! Packets giving you all this information and more were sent home Friday. Please contact Mrs. Farkas at milene.farkas@fraserk12.org for any questions.
The logo contest & garbage bag pics are attached.

SECOND STEP SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING CURRICULUM K-8
As you know, in September we kicked of the Second Step Curriculum in all K-8 classes to further strengthen our social and emotional learning. Second Step offers weekly, age-appropriate virtual lessons for students to help them with a variety of social and emotional skills. These weekly lessons build on and support all of the great work we're doing at Twain to support our students. Combined with our school-wide restorative practices and consistent PBIS expectations, we are creating a firm Tier 1 foundation for supporting all of our students' social, emotional, and behavioral development.
This week, each grade-level will begin a new unit. Please view the grade-level home links below to learn more about what your child is learning and how to support them at home during the second unit of Second Step.
Gratitude Notes
Eisenhower Families,
During the month of November, Eisenhower teachers and students are reflecting on what we are grateful for. We would love to hear from our valued families and community what and who you are grateful for at Eisenhower Elementary School.
Please take a brief moment to express your gratitude to our amazing staff by completing the google form below. Your words of appreciation make a great impact on our climate and culture. Thank you! :)
I will share all of your responses with the staff throughout the month.
Science Olympiad
We are very excited to be hosting a Virtual New Member Meeting for Ike's Science Olympiad Team. The meeting will be held on November 27th @ 6:30 p.m. Parent and child participation is needed for this meeting. Letters came home this week with information.
A copy of the letter is attached. We cannot wait to assemble our Eisenhower Science Olympiad All-Star Team!
READY OR NOT- THE COLD WEATHER IS HERE!
We're starting to see MANY students bundled up each day, which is great! Please be sure to send your child to school dressed for the weather each day. Students will start needing warm coats, gloves, hats, scarves, and/or boots daily throughout the winter.
Please take time to label each and every item- because our lost and found gets bombarded with lost winter accessories throughout the season
Please note that, per Board Policy, we will be having outdoor morning lineup and heading outdoors for our 20 minute recess(es) if the windchill is 10+ degrees.
Time outdoors is time well spent for kids, in all seasons
