Our art classes showed their collaborative work during our annual Veterans Day Parade today! What a beautiful way to honor our heroes!
Mrs. Weatherspoon's 5th grade class studied patterns of motion last week. They made these super cool pendulum paintings! Great job, Minks!
Mrs. Cate's 2nd grade class enjoyed making dinosaur impressions during their study of fossils.
Ms. Harbison's 2nd grade had so much fun today being paleontologists and excavating their own fossils just like they have been learning about during their daily ELA lesson! Each student uncovered their own fossil then had to describe and draw it so others could read about them.
Calhoun celebrated awesome attendance with Hat Day and PJ Day!

This Week @ CES
Thanks to a grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission, Bright Star Touring Theatre, a national professional touring theatre company based in Ashville, NC, visited Calhoun Elementary on Friday, November 1, presenting two performances.
Their performance of Peter Pan, about a boy who just wouldn’t grow up, was for students in grades Kindergarten – 4th. Peter Pan is one of the texts that support Tennessee curriculum standards and engages students in foundational literary concepts.
Students in grades 5-8 watched Bright Star actors perform The Story of Anne Frank, celebrating the courage of Anne Frank and her family. This performance honors the strength of the human spirit during some of the most challenging times in history.
We'd like to thank Tennessee Arts Commission, Bright Star Theatre, and Mrs. Tullier for making today possible!
What.a.day! We welcomed November Western style... in the rain!
