The Ida Grove Elementary is having a blast dressing up for homecoming days! Monday was "Couch Potato" day where students wore their favorite jammies or sweats. On Tuesday, they got to decide whether to wear country or city clothing on Country vs. City Day.
Reminder of the 2:00 dismissal this Friday, September 27th
The Ida Grove 4th grade students had the opportunity to visit the country school house and experience school back in time. Students got to work in readers, use slates, practice handwriting with ink and pens, and do math problems. To end the visit, they hiked to the Moorehead cemetery and went in the Stage Coach Inn.

Ida Grove Elementary Falcons of the Week 💜
Third graders in Ida Grove had a chance to try the Engineering Design Process by designing small boats from a small square of tin foil. After testing to see how many pennies each boat would hold, teams were able to redesign one final boat. Many teams had boats that held more than 50 pennies before sinking.
