Allen Elementary News

November was a month filled with gratitude, community, and cozy days. As the leaves changed color and the air turned crisp, we were excited to share all the wonderful things happening at Allen Elementary. From Fall Family Fun Night to Thanksgiving Lunch, there was something for everyone to enjoy. We’re especially proud of the progress our first and second graders are making as they learn to read, write, add, and subtract. Their enthusiasm for learning is truly inspiring!

Back by popular demand! Allen Elementary will host an evening of Holiday Music performances. Each team of second grade classes will perform our very own version of "Twas the Night Before Christmas" on the evening of December 19th. We hope you will be able to join us for this memorable event!

Get ready for some winter fun! Our last day of school before winter break is Friday, December 20th. We can't wait to see you back on Tuesday, January 8th, refreshed and ready to learn!

It was a night of fun, food, and fellowship at our Fall Family Fun Night! Families gathered to play games, make crafts, and enjoy delicious pizza and cookies. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to build stronger connections within our school community.

The second quarter has been a time of significant mathematical growth for our students. Our first graders have been diligently working on mastering addition facts, building a strong foundation for future mathematical concepts. They have been engaged in a variety of activities, from using manipulatives to practicing mental math strategies. Meanwhile, our second graders have been diving into the world of measurement, focusing primarily on length concepts. They have been exploring concepts such as inches, feet, and yards, using tools like rulers to measure objects around the classroom and school. Through hands-on experiences, our students are developing a deep understanding of measurement and its real-world applications.
