Last Friday, Mrs.McHugh and Ms.Alexander took all 5th grade students to the Jefferson County Courthouse to close out their final unit in ELA, which was their argumentative unit. The students got to plan and prepare opening statements, arguments, rebuttals, and closing statements on their topic to present to the "surprise judges" (the students' parents) for their trials. Each student got to be a part of the jury panel, the audience, and their own trial. This was such a fun way for students to practice their public speaking skills, as well as the planning that took place to ensure that they were prepared for their trial! What a great way to close out their ELA learning!

Here are more pictures of our 8th graders reading their children's books to our students at Pence and Washington!
Our FMS Bookworms competed in Battle of the Books or BOB last week. The Bookworms answered 100 questions over 10 books which was no easy feat. With over 30 teams competing in the tough 5-8 category, FMS did their best and represented our district well! A big congratulations goes out to these students: Jacob, Nancy, Tristen, Vishal, Avery, & Taryn!
Over the past few weeks, 8th graders have been studying and evaluating children's books for the purpose of creating their very own book.
This week, their projects came to fruition when their teacher, Mr. Drish and our school librarian, Mrs. Miller, took them to Washington and Pence Elementaries to read their finished books to our younger students.
Amazing work to our 8th graders and our teachers for their collaboration!
FMS, this week we are celebrating Mental Health Awareness, including some special dress up days. See the photo for details about each day!
Yesterday, 7th graders in Mrs. Edlin's ELA classes organized research for their essays about disasters. Students are researching all sorts of disasters - man-made, natural, and health.
