What caused the Yellow Fever outbreak? Our sixth-grade investigators are on the case!
Students in Mrs. Potts’ class have been diving into mysteries, examining evidence, testing theories, and piecing together clues to uncover the cause of Yellow Fever. Along the way, they’re putting their reading and critical-thinking skills to work by analyzing text evidence, making inferences, evaluating claims, and deciding which theories hold up under investigation. 🧠 Think like a detective. 🔍 Search for the evidence. 📝 Follow the clues. 💡 Solve the mystery!
Learning goes beyond simply finding the right answer. It’s about asking questions, thinking critically, and using evidence to support your conclusions!

Mrs. Hicks’s class showed their knowledge of volume and measurement by taking on the Volume Zoo Challenge! Students measured, calculated volume, and used their math skills to create Minecraft-inspired zoo animals.
A fun way to bring math, creativity, and problem-solving together!

🗳️It’s Election Day in Mrs. Hicks’ Social Studies Class! 🇺🇸
Students have been learning about the Constitution, the three branches of government, elections, and how our government works. Yesterday, our 6 presidential candidates gave campaign speeches, presented their campaign slides, and answered questions from their classmates. Today, students will head to the polls and cast their votes for Class President! 🗳️
It has been exciting to watch students experience the election process firsthand while putting what we’ve been learning into action!

Whether you’re showing livestock, displaying a project, or participating in another event, we wish you the very best this week! Parents and families—we’d love to celebrate our students! 📸 Please share pictures of your child and their 4-H projects or animals in the comments so our Milan school family can cheer them on. Good luck, and have a safe and successful fair!
