🌊 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! 📚✨ #FAWESailfish #MakingWaves

💙 Sailfish Families, let's make dinner easy tonight!

Every bite helps our school shine! ✨

See you there, Sailfish! 🐟

🌊⛵ 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! 💙💚

📚✨ Curriculum Night is almost here, Sailfish families! We can’t wait to welcome you to FAWE and share what an amazing year we have planned for our students! 💙💚 Join us Wednesday, August 19, or Thursday, August 20, for an opportunity to learn more about your child’s grade-level curriculum, expectations, and all the ways we’ll work together to make this a fantastic school year! 🐟📖 Check out the schedule below and mark your calendars! We’ll see you there! 💙

🧠✨ STEAM-ing up some serious thinking! 🚀💙💚 Our upper elementary classrooms have been putting their brains, teamwork, and perseverance to the test with some seriously awesome and fun STEAM challenges! 🛠️🧪📚 From the Marshmallow Challenge and Things in Common Notecards Challenge to Saving Fred the Worm, Helping Harry, and even LEGO Wind Car Races… our Sailfish are learning that sometimes the best solutions come after a few “Well… that didn’t work!” moments. 😂 These challenges aren’t just about building and problem-solving—they’re about collaboration, creative thinking, perseverance, grit, and learning how to keep going when the first (or second… or third 😅) idea doesn’t quite work out. At FAWE, we’re not just building things… we’re building critical thinkers, epic teammates, and hardworking problem-solvers! 💙💚🐟 #FAWEProud #STEAMatFAWE #ThinkCreateCollaborate #GritAndGrowth

📚🍴A Book Tasting for Our 5th Grade Readers!🍴📚 Mrs. Anderson (aka Chef Anderson) served up the perfect recipe for a fantastic start to 5th grade: BOOKS! 👩‍🍳📖✨ Her students enjoyed a delicious book tasting, sampling new titles and discovering their next reading adventures. There were plenty of books to browse, stories to savor, and new favorites to find! 💙💚 Looks like these Sailfish are ready to read their way through 5th grade! 🐟📚❤️ #FAWEProud #BookTasting #MakingWaves

Another exciting week is ahead at FAWE! Check out what's coming up!

📚✨ CURRICULUM NIGHTS ARE THIS WEEK! ✨📚

Sailfish families, we can’t wait to welcome you to Curriculum Night! 💙💚

This is a great opportunity to learn more about what students will be learning this year and get important information about classroom routines, expectations, and ways you can support your child’s success at home. 📖✏️

Be sure to check your messages for specific times for each grade level.

We’re excited to partner with our FAWE families as we make waves in learning all year long! 🌊🐟

✨ ONE WORD. BIG GOALS. ✨ Mrs. Torounian’s 4th graders are kicking off the school year with a little self-reflection, a little creativity, and A LOT of good vibes! 💙💚 After reading "One Word for Kids," each student picked one special word to guide them through the school year. Words like brave, patient, strong, positive, thankful, and blessed are now more than just words… they’re wearable reminders! 👏 The students turned their words into friendship bracelets to keep their goals, hopes, and wishes close by all year long. 📚✨ Sometimes a little bracelet is all you need to remind yourself: “Yep. I’ve got this.” 💪🐟 We can’t wait to watch these Sailfish LIVE their one words all year long! 💙💚

Raise your hand if you're ready for the first day 🙌 We can't wait to see our Sailfish make a splash at FAWE 💙💚
