Welcome to the real world, kiddos! 🏦💰
Our 5th graders are taking on a big challenge this month—balancing a family budget! They're earning salaries, paying bills, buying groceries, and balancing their checkbooks.
The big question: Will they have money left at the end of the month for fun activities and a few luxuries? 😅
It's hands-on learning at its best as our students discover the importance of financial literacy and smart money management!

🌊 HOW TO SAIL SUNDAY! ⚓️
This week, we’re focusing on A - ALWAYS RESPECTFUL! 💙💚 At school, we encourage our Sailfish to use kind words, listen to others, show good manners, and treat everyone with kindness. At home, you can help reinforce those same habits by modeling respectful words and actions, encouraging your child to think about how their choices make others feel, and celebrating those moments when they choose kindness. 💙💚
Have a quick chat with your sailfish about how they can be "A - always respectful" at home and at school. Let’s keep SAILing together FAWE family! ⛵️
✨ Multiplication & Division Rockstars!✨
Our 3rd graders are diving into multiplication and division, and they’re learning that becoming a math whiz is a journey! 🧠✏️
Students start with hands-on materials to build understanding, move to pencil-and-paper strategies to show their thinking, and eventually work toward mental math and memorization to build fluency and confidence.
From concrete models to “I know it in my head!” moments, our Sailfish are building their math skills one strategy at a time! 🐟💙💚 #FAWEProud
📚💙 Reading Buddies are back in action! 💙📚
Our 4th and 1st grade reading buddies from Ms. Root and Mrs. Kujawa's classes teamed up to tackle their Back-to-School Reading Challenge goals, and we LOVED seeing them cheer each other on along the way! 🐟📖
From sharing favorite books to encouraging one another to keep reading, these Sailfish are proving that reading is even better when we do it together! 💙
Way to go, readers! Keep turning those pages and reaching those goals! 📚✨

🌊⛵ Time to SAIL 💙💚
At FAWE, we use "SAIL" as a simple acronym to encourage positive behavior. We ask that our students be...
💚 S - Safe
⚓ A - Always Respectful
🌟 I - Incredibly Responsible
🌊 L - Learn & Lead by Example
When families use the same language at home that students hear at school, it creates stronger partnerships and gives our kids clear, consistent reminders about what it means to be a Sailfish. Those little conversations at home can make a very BIG difference at school!
Over the next few weeks, we are going to break down our SAIL acronym so you can have quick, meaningful chats with your children and apply the acronym at home as well.
This week, let's look at "S - SAFE" ⚓️
At school, we remind our Sailfish to make safe choices and look out for themselves and others. At home, a quick reminder to stop, think, and choose to be safe can help reinforce the same message. Have a chat with your child and discuss how they can be safe at home and at school. Together, we can help our Sailfish SAIL even further! 💙💚

🎤💙 This week our 4th and 5th grade Sailfish recently participated in Philosophical Chairs, an engaging AVID strategy that promotes critical thinking, effective communication, and respectful collaboration.
During the activity, students shared their viewpoints, supported their thinking with evidence, actively listened to others, and thoughtfully considered different perspectives. Philosophical Chairs provides students with valuable opportunities to develop their voice while practicing the skills needed to be successful learners and leaders.
We are proud of our Sailfish for demonstrating confidence, respect, and thoughtful discussion throughout this AVID learning experience! 🐟
