Fire Prevention Presentation

Chadron Primary School would like to send a HUGE THANK YOU to the Chadron Volunteer Fire Department for coming to our school during Fire Prevention Week.  The students were able to visit with the firefighters and learn about the vehicles, equipment, and fire safety.  This year's theme of "Check the Date, Don't Wait" was to encourage families to check smoke detectors in homes!!!  The students learned the importance of knowing safe ways to exit their homes and we encourage all families to have an exit plan and meeting spot in case of fires.

Recycle Bowl Begins

Chadron Primary School is excited to team up once again with Keep Chadron Beautiful for the Recycle Bowl.  Jackie Dailey from Keep Chadron Beautiful explained to our students what is considered recycling and what should go in the trash.  The students also had a relay race to practice their recycling skills.  We will begin collecting recycling in our containers next to the fence near the flag pole so please help us out by bringing your recycling to school.

7th Grade Readers

On Friday Mrs. Smith brought some 7th Grade readers to the Primary building to read to our Kindergarten students.  Our children were thrilled to have the "big kid" readers join our classes and it is so much fun for our teachers to watch former students excelling!!  Thank you to Mrs. Smith and the 7th graders for making our day so special!  We look forward to having you visit again.

Chadron Fight Song

There is some debate as to the lyrics of the Chadron Fight Song... After a bit of research this is what we have found:
On for Chadron (song is On Wisconsin)On for Chadron,On for Chadron,Fight on for your fame. We will victory, We will victory, A touchdown is our aim.(rah, rah, rah)
On for Chadron, On for Chadron, Fight on for your fame. Fight Cardinals fightAnd we will win this game.
I hope this helps our students and parents so we can cheer loud for our Cardinals!!

Cardinals Committed

Chadron Primary was lucky to have a few AMAZING student athletes join some of our students for lunch!!  Six students from Chadron High School's Cardinals Committed group came over to our building to eat lunch and visit with our students.  First graders and kindergarten students were incredibly excited about meeting and talking with these "Super Stars"!!  It was great to see these wonderful role models interact with our younger students and show examples of making good choices.

Journaling

Mrs. Hendrickson's Language group worked on combining sentences and ended their language time with some journaling.  The students really seem to enjoy a time to express their thoughts.  Even after the bell rang, many students were still writing away!  How exciting to see this love of learning taking place in 2nd grade!!

Our beloved Ms. Charla

The students were so very excited to see our beloved Ms. Charla!!  We are wishing her a continued speedy recovery and cannot wait until she is back with us!

Color Wheel FUN!

Last week Mrs. Cogdill's class learned about the Primary and Secondary colors.  The students used paint with the three Primary colors (red, yellow, and blue) to create their own color wheels.  It was such a fun project to watch!!
