ON THE DEFENSE
Recently, students in Mr. Doran's class have been learning about positive defense mechanisms that they can use when feeling anxious, attacked, accused, or even angry. Under Mr. Doran's guidance, students made a list of techniques to manage their feelings that do not hurt others. These techniques are also designed to help students avoid trouble. The class then designed shields to use as defense mechanisms, adding their personal favorite options onto the shields themselves.
Upon completion, students affixed the shields to foam boards, providing a physical reminder of the positive ways they can deal with uncomfortable situations.

It's another favorite unit in Mrs. Dornon's Health Sciences class. Students have been working through their athletic training unit, learning how to properly tape ankles and wrists, amongst other skills.
These students are almost ready to take their skills to the sidelines. Great work, Musketeers!

COLLEAGUE CREDIT
Mrs. Renee White shares that an elementary student was recently having a very difficult time transitioning in the hallway. Scooby, along with his handler, Bradie, happened to walk down the hallway where this student was hiding under a bench to avoid going back to class. Scooby and Bradie offered to walk the student to class. Scooby gave the student a friendly nudge, and the student came out from under the bench, returning to class under the careful (and cuddly) watch of Scooby. Mrs. White shares that Scooby has been a great addition at Greenup County School of Innovation!
Everyone, please put your paws together for Scooby!

LUNCH ON THE LAWN
With the sun shining and a bagged lunch, students enjoyed a meal in the courtyard. We love the beautiful weather, watching summer gently turn into fall, and want to enjoy the sunshine whenever we can.



FICTION LITERACY CENTERS
In preparation for an upcoming test, seventh-grade students in the classes of Katie Williams have been participating in fiction literacy centers.
We love seeing our students engaged in hands-on learning experiences!








MRS. TUCKER'S MATH CLASSES DIG INTO AGRICULTURE
During the past month, students in Mrs. Tucker’s math classes have been busy connecting math to the real-world. During Agriculture Week, they designed their own farms: applying area, perimeter, and budgeting skills to create layouts that could actually work in the real world. They also explored square roots through hands-on, interactive activities, and even took on the role of teacher, designing and presenting their very own math lessons to the class. These creative learners are proving that math truly grows everywhere! 🌱✨

Be sure to stop by and purchase your favorites before they're gone!






DICTIONARY WARS
Last week, students in Ms. Steel's fourth-grade class participated in dictionary wars. They were racing to look up their vocabulary words and, simultaneously, working to master the use of the dictionary.
Great work, students!




BASICS OF CPR
Students in Mrs. Dornon's Health Sciences class have been working hard to learn the basics of CPR, and we can all note that they are mastering the techniques properly.
Great work, Musketeers!
