🎉🏅 Congratulations to our September Redbirds of the Month at McMullen Elementary! 🏅🎉
These outstanding students have shown exceptional character, hard work, and a positive attitude both in and out of the classroom. We are so proud of their dedication and leadership! 🦅✨
Way to go, Redbirds! Keep soaring high! 💪❤️









🎃🧙♀️ Get ready for a spooktacular twist on Hot Potato—it's Broomstick! 🧹🎶
Here’s how it works: Players pass a "broomstick" (actually a boomwhacker!) around the circle while the music plays. When the music stops, whoever's holding the broomstick is out and heads to the "cauldron" in the center! Students kept going until they were down to the final two witches or wizards! 🧙♂️✨
It’s a fun way to incorporate movement into music class and get the Halloween spirit flying! 🎃🧡



🎉 Math in Action with Mrs. Baker’s Class! 🎉
Last week, Mrs. Baker’s students dove into one of the Interactive Tutorial videos for their iReady math lesson, and they were on fire! 🔥 Students took turns stepping up to answer questions while the rest of the class cheered them on like true math champions. The energy and teamwork were incredible!
We are so proud of our young mathematicians for their hard work and enthusiasm. Keep it up, future problem-solvers! 🧮✨

Thank you to a very generous donor who bought and delivered 300 pumpkins to McMullen! The kids have been having so much fun in art class this week painting them to display at the Loudonville Fair. Make sure you all come check them out next week in the produce tent!







Exciting news from our kindergarten classrooms! Our little scientists have been learning about the life cycle of butterflies, and last week we watched in awe as our caterpillars emerged as beautiful butterflies! 🦋 It's been a magical experience seeing nature up close and personal.
