University Elementary

There’s no rest for the weary. After a full day’s work, why take time off to socialize when that next chapter is waiting to be explored in the pickup line?! It’s great to see the love of reading on display. #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Reading, writing, math….crocheting?! Students in Ms. Kroll’s class come together during lunch/recess to build community, and their skills, learning how to crochet. We will have blankets, scarves, and hats before you know it! #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Kindergarten students in Ms. Rommel’s class collaborated in mathematical tasks today, building communication, problem solving, and reasoning skills. #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Each day, students across the school engage in a 30-min intervention time called Charge where reteaching and enrichment occurs. Ms. Antrim’s Charge Group is working on identifying main idea and using evidence from the text to support their answers. #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU

2nd grade students worked in vertical spaces to discuss what measuring tools they would use to measure various items (ex., camera, swingset, car, hat, barn, etc.). #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Students in Mrs. Kopp’s 2nd grade class learned about different measuring tools today during math class with a special guest, Giraffee, allowed them to measure his tail, body, head, and legs. #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Our Beginning and Continuing Strings students from UES have done a great job through the first semester developing their skills. Tonight’s orchestra concert promises to be a showcase of talent! #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Recess hits differently (for all the right ressons) when you’re playing in a winter wonderland. #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Zeros and negative exponents in math…. These kids are running laps around this content! #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

“Your thinking task for today is to use th digits 1-9 to create three equivalent fractions…” Our kids are jumping right in today to flex their big brains! #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

“Every time a PK student reads a book, a teacher gets a smile.” #NaturallyGlobal #ILoveMCCSC @MCCSC_EDU

If you haven’t had the chance to visit Morgenstern’s this week to do some shopping to support our UES Library, come on out! Tonight, Mrs. Kopp and Ms. Eastes read Elephant and Piggy to our students. #NaturallyGlobal #ILoveMCCSC @MCCSC_EDU

Congrats to the Kids Compose winners from University. Over 200 students in MCCSC submitted an original song they composed to Indiana University. Eight winners were chosen and three are from University! We are so proud of our Univees! #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU

Story time with Ms. Glassey in the library is one of the highlights of every student’s week! She finds just the right books to engage curiosity, thinking, and reflection. #NaturallyGlobal #ILoveMCCSC @MCCSC_EDU

Students in Mrs. Kinkead’s class had a deep and rich discussion about theme today while reading Junior Great Books. If you want to discuss the impact of technology through the lens of 1950’s The Velt by Ray Bradbury, find these kids! #NaturallyGlobal #ILoveMCCSC @MCCSC_EDU

When working to identify the sounds in the word “theme,” can you think of a better way to practice as a first grader than to “pop” it out on a Push Pop Bubble Fidget? #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Students were crushing it today in Ms. Eastes’ classroom as they worked to make words, using fine motor skills, as they practice their UFLI knowledge. #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC

Few things warm the heart more than watching kindergarten students discover the power of words as they enjoy the library. #NaturallyGlobal @MCCSC_EDU #ILoveMCCSC
