Our kindergartners got to experience their first field trip by visiting Beasley's Orchard to learn all about their apple picking, sorting, and selling process. Thanks to all of the parent volunteers who chaperoned and helped out! We love Fall in Indiana!
Mrs. Price, our librarian, helps bring a joy of learning and reading to our students on a daily basis! She helps our Central CHAMPS to learn how to find good-fit books that match their interests, she introduces them to new books/authors through read-alouds, plus much more!
We think it's pretty neat that our art teacher has the coolest name ever! We love Mrs. Brush and all of the creative ways that she engages our Central CHAMPS and helps them tap into their creativity.
We love our music teacher, Mr. Kamm! He helps our students learn in new and creative ways.
Second graders enjoyed their October odyssey to The Imagination Lab on Friday! We love the unique experiences that the lab brings to students and we LOVE our lead learner volunteers who come and spend time with us at the lab!
Our Central CHAMPS earned a kindness parade on Friday to celebrate all of our acts of kindness and donations received! It's not every day that you see 5th graders this excited! :)
The 4C's are in action daily in Plainfield's schools but The Imagination Lab always takes it above and beyond! Here are some 5th graders designing and printing 3D wobble coins at their Odyssey at The Imagination Lab.
Did you know that you can volunteer at the lab? Just view this website: https://sites.google.com/plainfield.k12.in.us/tilvolunteers
Thanks to our 5th graders in Mrs. Mosier's class for volunteering to help weed our playground garden throughout Central's Kindness Movement! What a great act of kindness this was.
Here are Mrs. Szpeski's and Mrs. O'Connor's classes learning from our school resource officer, Officer Scott, about his job as a police officer. Thank you, Officer Scott, for taking the time to come talk to our kindergartners!
Thank you to the Plainfield first responders who came and visited all of our students during lunchtime! Central students collaborated with Mrs. Brush, our art teacher, to make Thank You cards to give the first responders. It was great to see the smiling faces and for our students to have the opportunity to interact with our local community partners from the PPD and PFT.
Thanks to our community partner Duke Energy for visiting students before Fall Break and bringing their Energy Revolution program! Duke partners with The National Theatre for Children to help promote conservation and energy efficiency education. This organization uses professional actors to teach students about energy efficiency through engaging, comical and informative live theater sketches. Our students LOVED it!
4th graders enjoyed visiting the State House and Indiana State Museum to help them learn more about our state and its history. What a fun field trip!
2nd graders have been learning all about animal adaptations, habitats, and life cycles. Before heading to the zoo for their field trip, students chose an animal to research and learn more about. Students will now use what they observed at the zoo along with non-fiction resources to write a research report on their animal!
Thanks for a great 1st quarter of the school year! We look forward to seeing the students on Monday October 17th. Have a fun and safe break!
1st-graders enjoying using the 4 C's at their September Odyssey to the Imagination Lab!
On Tuesday Central's PTO, staff, and families came together for our second Family Service Night! It was a great way to spread kindness and give back to our community. Thank you to everyone who helped make it possible!
3rd grade had a great learning experience at Conner Prairie for their Fall field trip.
Look at these smiles! It seems like 5th grade lunch is the place to be!
Kindergarten and 5th grade Book Buddies enjoying their reading time together!
Hands-on learning at its best throughout 4th grade Science!
