For the month of October Warsaw Early Learning Academy, students in Miss Amy and Miss LeeAnn's preschool classroom did a take home reading program. The theme for the reading program was "Pete the Cat Reading is Groovy!!" Each child was given a book on Monday to take home and read with their family. They then recorded the number of minutes they read together each night on Pete the Cat's shoes. They returned the shoes to school and the teachers recorded the number of minutes read. They read a total of 4,292 minutes for the month of October!!! It breaks down as follows; Week 1- 834 minutes, Week 2- 1,227 minutes, Week 3- 1,194 minutes and Week 4- 1,165 minutes. The WELA Preschoolers say "Reading is Cool !!!"

Advanced Life Science: Animals (dual college credit, science credit)- In Mr. Riley's Advanced Life Science: Animals class, they are studying the respiratory system of mammals and its interaction with the heart and circulatory system. Students were able to dissect a sheep pluck, which includes the heart, aorta, lungs, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and diaphragm, to discover lung function and how oxygen is brought into the animal body and how carbon dioxide is removed. This investigation also provided an opportunity to scrutinize the interdependence of these two systems.
