The cultural focus this week was making their own Chinese cucumber salads. The chili crunch and sesame oils were the favorite flavors!

In CP Chemistry, students faced a challenge to make a balloon stick to the wall, introducing the structure of the atom. They learned to overcome gravity with electrostatic forces from electron buildup on the balloon. After sharing their models, they revised them. In lab, students explored chemical and physical changes using seven different substances, gathering data to identify which substances demonstrated each type of change.

In Pre-AP Chemistry, students related macroscopic phase transitions to microscopic energy changes, studying energy transfer during chemical reactions. They applied thermochemistry equations in various lab experiments, including calorimetry.

AP Chemistry students explored bonding types and models explaining element interactions, focusing on Lewis structures to predict molecular geometry and bonding types. They connected geometry to molecular charges and trends in data resulting from bonding forces. In lab, they investigated chromatography to determine the type of bonding in unknown substances.

To prepare for the 2025 College Board AP Exam, Hoboken High School's 9th Grade Advanced Placement World History students are exploring a range of "Big History" topics. Units one and two covered China's Song Dynasty, the "Pax Mongolica," and Dar al-Islam.

Students are enhancing their critical thinking skills through competitive AP skill review exercises, timed writing competitions, multiple-choice contests, poster outline essay races, and vocabulary challenges. Recently, they engaged in team-building activities focused on pacing, communication, and collaboration, reflecting on how these exercises illustrated collaborative academic learning.

In statistics class, students are exploring different ways to display statistical data, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots. For a hands-on activity, they created a "living" box plot by lining up according to their sleep times along a timeline.

This visual helped identify important data points, including outliers and the median sleep time, highlighting that the class could use more rest.

Culinary Arts students took a trip to Melick's Town Farm in Oldwick. We learn about the history of the family farm. The farm is run by the 3 siblings who are 10th generation to own and run the farm. They are also the largest apple growers in NJ.

This week in Mrs. Fasolino’s Pre-K class students learned all about Keeping Safe. They discussed the importance of 911, the roles and responsibilities of Firemen and Policemen, and even became their own Junior Officers! The class went on a virtual field trip to a police station and got to learn about K9 Police dogs!

Students also worked on Purple Ribbon Week and Digital Citizen Week. They learned how to be safe on the internet and the importance of peoples differences. The class also focused on learning a new shape: squares! They are getting excited and gearing up for Halloween and can’t wait to start celebrating!

The students at 770 Jackson St. are having an amazing week fundraising! The site is hosting a coin drive to fund the fun activities that the students will participate in throughout the school year. Each day, the students are using their math skills to help count the coins in hopes to be the class who collects the most throughout the week.

All of the children are so excited and enthusiastic to be taking part in the drive. We thank all of the children and families for participating and helping to make this school year a memorable one!

In Ms. Nicole’s Preschool Class students talked about the life cycle of pumpkins. They used fine motor skills to cut, paste, and sequence the cycle. The class also created dot art pumpkins and matched and counted pumpkins. They welcomed a new friend to class and are showing all the great things they learned such as how to follow directions and participate in class.

Students are loving the art center to practice their drawing skills as well as the dramatic play center where the students love taking care of the babies and setting the table for the family.

Students at the Calabro site room 300 read a book called “Spookley the Square Pumpkin” by Joe Troiano. The class discussed the life cycle of a pumpkin and how they grow on vines. The class got to cut a pumpkin and examine the insides. The children created a hypothesis about what is inside the pumpkin.

They examined the inside and discovered that there are seeds inside and that the pumpkin is wet to the touch. Students smelled the pumpkin and discovered it didn't smell like a pumpkin pie, but that the pumpkin insides can become a pumpkin pie.

In Connors 001 the children expressed interest in the leaves changing colors. The class read, “Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf” by Lois Ehlert and it sparked even more interest in the different kinds of leaves. Students decided to collect the leaves around the neighborhood. They went out for a walk around Connors and the children pick up some leaves and observe the trees around the school. They brought the leaves back to school to further investigate. Students were able to classify leaves according to color, shape, and pattern.

After getting a chance to look at them closely, the children did some leaf rubbings. Creating leaf rubbings allowed the students to see the beauty of something as simple as the small leaves on a tree. Each one unique in shape, color, and texture. Their art work will be hung in the Science Area so they can refer back to the project throughout Fall.

This week in room 102, the children dove into the wonderful world of science and math. The class listened to the story "Fall is Here". After reading the story, the children used real leaves and magnifying glasses to study the leaves by color and shape.

The children saw multiple colors inside the leaves and realized that these were fall leaves. They also counted the number of different colors they saw. What an amazing science eye activity.

Preschool pumpkin picking can be a fun and educational experience! The class read the book "Pumpkin Countdown" by Joan Holub before they participated in their indoor pumpkin picking. The students were able to choose their own pumpkin. Everyone was encouraged to think about size, shape, and color as they found their perfect pumpkin.

After the students picked their pumpkin they each were able to use markers and stickers to decorate them.

Room 111 has been loving participating in fall experiments! This past week the class talked about apples and enzymatic browning. Children were sharing how much they enjoyed pumpkin and apple picking around this time of year. Students talked about the colors and shapes of apples during science Eyes . These delicious fruits have a wide variety of tastes and textures.

The class took a poll and asked the children how long they think it will take for the apples to turn brown once they are cut. After tallying up the votes, the excitement began! Once the apples were sliced, the teachers took out a timer and the children monitored the apples. It turns out, it takes approximately 10 minutes for enzymatic browning to take place. The children really enjoyed this lesson.

Pumpkin exploration and the TOTM family theme have been recent topics in Wallace Class 104. The class started their pumpkin exploration by reading non fiction books about pumpkins. As a TOTM learning facts story lab the class read Scholastic News My Big World with Clifford, Parts of a Pumpkin, Oct. 2022 issue. After reading, the children drew pictures of the pumpkin facts they learned. The hands-on learning took place when they carved a giant pumpkin together as part of a Science Eyes activity. Before carving the pumpkin students made observations and guessed how many seeds were inside the pumpkin. Once it was carved students used their sense of touch, sight, and smell to explore the pulp and seeds. They drew pictures of their observations. Later on, the class counted the seeds by groups of 10.

Students continue to build play skills though developing their TOTM family theme. The teachers also integrate this theme throughout other learning activities. During a math activity: Remember and Replicate, the children used their fine motor skills, working memory, and self regulation to create a family meal out of playdough-spaghetti and meatballs. Well, actually it was just two spaghetti and one meatball to be exact! Either way they did an excellent job and had fun doing it!

What an amazing month of October it has been in Ms. Sophia and Ms. Basma's classroom. The class read "Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See?" and was introduced the story extension activity. Students practiced Science Eyes by examining their pumpkins they picked at the Pumpkin Patch Activity in the Rue gym.

Students had a great time picking their pumpkins with friends and family. Each student was able to tell the teachers what the inside of the pumpkin felt and looked like. In honor of the Fall season, students "fell in love with learning" by painting beautiful trees using paint dabbers. It is going to be a great year filled with more fun activities in room 101!

The Hoboken HS Girls Varsity Tennis Team made history by clinching their first-ever Hudson County title in a thrilling final defeating Kearny HS 3-2.
