North Harrison Elementary School

Prior to fall break Mrs. Smith's 5th grade class did a Pumpkin Science STEM activity!

Before Fall Break, Miss Leffler's class had to escape the corn maze! They had to solve the clues around the room and then the final STEM challenge to escape was to create a pumpkin patch.

This is a reminder that NHCS Fall Break begins on Friday, October 6 (no students). School will resume on Monday, October 16.

NHES 4th grade students working collaboratively on a STEM activity.

Mr. Johnson's 4th grade class worked on their group collaborations today in reading. Groups were tasked with starting a business that would help others and to consider the steps to take to start their businesses.

Our North Harrison Elementary 4th grade students had some special guests today! Indiana 811 Safe Digging Program came to teach our students. They also received several items to take home and share the information with their families!

In focus on our STEM initiative, Ms. Hollen’s class talked about where you would go if you floated down a river. They learned that there’s a pattern with all rivers. They all start on elevated land areas such as mountains or hilly terrain and all eventually end up in one of our Earth’s oceans. In partner pairs they created their own “land.” They took their projects outside to see what happens when it rains in these areas. They discussed how the rainwater rolls downhill to the lower areas and forms these rivers. The kiddos’ had a great time with this today and are looking forward to the rest their erosion-themed STEM activities the rest of this week.
