My student of the week for

March 7-11 is Aidan Whitman!

Aidan is a hard worker and

always puts forth his best effort

in choir. Each day at musical

rehearsal Aidan is ready to work

on his parts. I really enjoy

having Aidan in class and look

forward to see what Aidan

accomplishes in the future!

~Mrs. Frank

Ariel Plaski is my student-of-the-week

for March 14-18. Ariel amazes me by

setting high standards for herself, and

achieving them. She skillfully juggles

extra-curricular activities, volunteering,

a part-time job, all the while achieving

academic success. This year, Ariel has

added college research and application

to her “to-do” list. Her motivation and

organization in this endeavor matches all that she has put forth

in the others. She truly has a bright future. ~ Mrs. Huebner

Discovery Days at Mid-State Technical College

Recently, Almond-Bancroft 7th Graders had the

opportunity to visit the Mid-State Technical

College— Wisconsin Rapids campus for

Discovery Days. Students learned about technical

education, explored MSTC through a campus tour which included hands-on

opportunities and participated in a career exploration activity.

G.I.F.T.S. (Classroom Guidance)

Students in K-5th grade are receiving instruction in self-regulation adapted from the social/emotional

curriculum, "Zones of Regulation" by Leah Kuypers. Students are learning that while there are no

"naughty" or "bad" zones, there are definitely times when certain feelings impede the ability to be

productive and focused at school. For the last part of the year, students will be practicing identifying

their feelings/zones as well as those of the people around them. They will also be learning about

some "tools" they can use to move out of a zone that is keeping them from being focused, back into

the green zone, ready to learn. Some examples of tools are calming techniques such as deep

breathing and using their own " inner coach," which focuses on using positive self-talk.

Students are learning that while there are no "naughty" or "bad" zones, there are definitely times

when certain feelings impede the ability to be productive and focused at school. As adults, we all

know how difficult it is to focus at our job or on a task when we are worried or dealing with sadness.

Most of us have developed tools to cope, but for children this is a difficult task.

For the last part of the year, students will be practicing identifying their feelings/zones as well as

learn. Some examples of tools are calming techniques such as deep breathing and using their own "

inner coach," which focuses on using positive self-talk.

Counselor Lunch Bunch

Elementary students have regular opportunities to eat lunch with Mrs.

McDonald in her office. This is a great time to learn some things

while having fun. We often play games while we eat,

focusing on good game etiquette. Sometimes we talk about

fun things like where we went on vacation, while other times

we might talk about issues that pop up at school. When

there are several students together, it is always a great time

to brainstorm strategies to use when things at school annoy us

or make us sad. We even find time to be just plain silly, because it’s fun!
