🐾 A special visitor brought comfort and plenty of smiles to our K–2 students!
An officer introduced students to a police therapy dog and explained how her job differs from other police dogs: she provides comfort and helps people through stressful situations. Students also got to pet her and enjoy a little comfort of their own! ❤️

🤖 Big ideas start with a little code! After a month of exploring block coding with Blockly, Kodable, and MakeCode, Ms. Hill’s 3rd–5th graders are putting their skills into action in Innovation Station.
Students are coding Ozobots and Spheros, programming micro: bits, and exploring computer-aided design (CAD) by designing their own 3D creations in Tinkercad. Coding, designing, and bringing ideas to life—our Wolves are busy creating! 💻🐾

🌟🚒 WE CAN BE HELPERS! 🚒🌟
Ms. Williamson’s K–2 class at Wellford Academy of Science and Technology had an AMAZING time becoming community helpers in our very own Curious Cubs Community Town! 🥰
Our classroom transformed into five hands-on stations where our kiddos explored real-world jobs!
🚒 Fire Station: Our brave firefighters rescued animals in need!
🐾 Animal Hospital: Our caring veterinarians examined, treated, and bandaged their furry patients!
📬 Post Office: Our postal workers sorted letters and delivered mail to the correct woodland mailboxes!
♻️ Recycling Center: Our environmental helpers sorted paper, plastic, and cardboard to help take care of our planet!
🍔 Wolf Cub Café: Our little restaurant workers took orders, prepared meals, served customers, and practiced using money!
Along the way, we practiced communication, counting, sorting, problem-solving, teamwork, and important life skills—all while having an absolute BLAST!
The excitement, smiles, and pride were priceless! ❤️
Our biggest lesson of the day? Everyone has something special to contribute to our Wellford community. No matter how big or small, WE CAN ALL BE HELPERS! 🌎💕

🍽️ A school lunch menu with a little fourth-grade flavor!
Ms. Warren’s fourth graders teamed up with our cafeteria staff today to share their opinions on menu favorites and foods they’d rather skip! Students also created their own menus, with a menu to be chosen in a few weeks. 📝
The taste test brought a tasty decision: popcorn chicken or chicken nuggets—which would get their vote? Thank you to our cafeteria staff for giving students a voice in what’s on their plates! ❤️

🍎 A little shopping, a little math, and a bag full of fresh possibilities!
Our third graders visited a farmers market right here at school! With $7 in play money to spend, students put their math skills to work choosing from green beans, squash, collard greens, grapes, apples, and sweet potatoes while staying within their budgets. 🛒

Last week, our K4 and K5 students enjoyed a special visit from the Duncan Fire Department as part of October’s Fire Safety Month!
Students learned important lessons about fire safety, including how to contact the fire department in an emergency and the protective clothing and equipment firefighters use to stay safe while helping others. The excitement continued with an up-close look at the fire trucks and a tour of the various tools and equipment firefighters use to do their jobs.
A big thank-you to the Duncan Fire Department for taking the time to visit our students and provide such a fun, engaging, and educational learning experience! ❤️🚒

A special thank-you to Food Lion of Lyman for their incredibly generous donation! Because of their kindness, each K4 student at Wellford received a pumpkin of their very own! 🎃
Our students enjoyed selecting their own pumpkin from the patch, providing a fun, hands-on opportunity to explore the season and make a special connection to our recent fall learning activities. We are excited for everyone to take their pumpkins home today!
We are so grateful for community partners who help make learning experiences like these extra special for our youngest learners! ❤️

🍬 How sweet it is to put math to work!
Ms. Carson’s 5th graders got a tasty preview of multiplying decimals when Mr. Bringer let them make “purchases” at Wesley’s Candy Shop! Working in groups of four, students chose their top three selections and used multiplication strategies, addition, and subtraction of decimals for a sweet learning experience. 🛍️🧮

🧢🎩 Hats off to a great Red Ribbon Week! ❤️
We wrapped up Red Ribbon Week at Wellford Academy with Hat Day: “Putting a CAP on Drugs!” Our Wolves showed off their favorite hats while reminding everyone of the importance of making healthy choices and staying drug-free!

🐾 Some four-legged visitors helped bring learning to life in our classrooms! Through the Chaser Initiative, students met a Mastiff, Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, or Newfoundland and watched a short video introducing Chaser and the initiative’s work.
Students took turns helping care for him, offering treats, walking him, and practicing commands such as “sit” and “lay.” These hands-on activities showed how dogs learn to connect human words with actions. Students also learned how to ask permission before petting a dog and how to interact gently and safely. 🐶
Each student received a copy of *Chaser* to take home and share their learning with their families! 📚❤️
