🔬💨 Forces & Motion in Action! 💨🔬
Our first graders are diving into the world of forces and motion, and what better way to learn than through hands-on experiments! 👏
🌤️ Mrs. Spencer, Mrs. Patton, and Mrs. Springs’ classes took their learning outside to explore how weather impacts movement, testing how wind, air resistance, and different outdoor conditions can change the way objects move. 🌬️🍃
🏫 Mrs. Stayrook and Mrs. Yoder’s classes kept things local, using marbles, balls, and windmills to investigate motion and force indoors proving you don’t have to go far to discover big ideas!
No matter the setting, one thing is clear: students learn best when they’re curious, engaged, and having fun! 💡🎉

💰🍭 Learning About Money Never Tasted So Good! 🍭💰
Mrs. Dallas’ second graders have been busy becoming money masters through a fun, hands-on experience! 🛍️
Students rotated through three exciting stations:
🍬 Dallas Delights
🍭 Ashley’s Sweet & Sassy General Store
🍫 The Tiger Tasty Treats
At each “shop,” students practiced real-life skills like:
💵 Spending money and making change
🪙 Using the fewest coins possible
💲 Paying with dollar bills
➕ Calculating how much change they should receive
The best part? They got to purchase snacks at each stop while using the correct methods requested by each store owner! 😋👏
What a fun (and delicious!) way to build important life skills!

📜✨ Medieval Masterpieces in the Making! ✨📜
Step back in time with Mr. Clapp's 7th grade history students, who took on the role of medieval monks in this hands-on project! Before the printing press, books had to be copied by hand. Talk about dedication! 💪📖

The creativity, patience, and craftsmanship on display were incredible! 👏
🏆 Congratulations to our class winners!

💉🍊🍌 Hands-On Learning in Ag Class Today! 🍌🍊💉
Our Ag students rolled up their sleeves (literally!) for a fun and educational injections lab today! They learned how to properly draw up a syringe and practiced injection techniques using oranges and bananas, each offering different textures to simulate real-life scenarios.
From understanding proper angles to safe handling and technique, students gained valuable skills that are especially important for careers in agriculture, animal science, and even healthcare. This type of hands-on experience helps build confidence for those who may one day be responsible for giving vaccinations or caring for animals.
Who knew fruit could be such great teachers? 🍊🍌👏

🌪️🐅 Tornado Drill at WL-S 🐅🌪️
West Liberty-Salem students participated in the statewide tornado drill today at 9:50 AM, as sirens sounded across Ohio as part of this important safety exercise.
The drill served not only as a test of emergency systems, but also as a valuable opportunity to review and practice tornado safety procedures. From elementary through high school, our students responded quickly and did a great job following protocols, while teachers reinforced the importance of staying prepared during severe weather.
And in true WL-S fashion, a few of our Ag students even donned their safety goggles just in case! 😄
We’re proud of our students and staff for taking this seriously while also keeping a positive attitude. Being prepared helps keep everyone safe! 🧡🖤
