Congratulations to our champion Middle School Battle of the Books team!!
On March 21, our team of readers represented La Farge at the regional Battle of the Books contest, hosted by Viroqua Schools at McIntosh Memorial Library. These students participated in a trivia-style contest against 12 other teams from our area.
They represented La Farge well and we are proud of all of their hard work in preparing for this event!!
Spanish 2 and 3 students ended the 3rd quarter reading entire novels in Spanish. Spanish 2 is reading "El Chico Global," a story about a teen who is sent on a mysterious wild goose chase on the other side of the world while Spanish 3 is diving into "Esperanza," a novel about a family caught up in the uncertainty and despair of a civil war in Guatemala. Both stories offer tons of cultural references and are a fun activity to utilize our language skills in a concrete way. Students are always a bit intimidated by reading books in Spanish, but are impressed with how much they are actually able to interpret and comprehend what is going on in the plotline!
Spanish classes also just wrapped up an annual favorite spring activity called Locura de Marzo, a bracket style music competition where popular songs from the Spanish-speaking world face off against each other until only one final song remains after receiving the majority of student votes from all across the nation. This year's winner was "No Puedo," an Argentinian rap song that many students immediately added to their playlists. Shakira's song "Music Sessions #53" came in at a close second. Listening to music in Spanish is one of the best and most fun ways to improve language skills!
Don't forget to set up your student's eWallet account for cashless, stress-less shopping.
Friends and family can even contribute funds! Set one up now here:

The 1st Graders were SO excited to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with the Kindergartners before Spring Break. We created our own bingo cards, allowing us to work on our fine motor skills, manipulating objects within boundaries, and becoming game masters. We finished our party with some treats and a story!
