Mrs. Nickolauson's 8th grade REACH students recently completed a challenging ‘Reassembling the rainbow’ Team Building activity.Half of the team is blindfolded, while the other half can see. The students that can see cannot say the color of the block or touch the blocks. They have a pattern they have to complete as a team, and as a team devise multiple different strategies to achieve their goal.
This activity focuses on teamwork, patience, critical-thinking, and strategic thinking. While it was a slow start, they worked together to complete the pattern and were kind to one another while working on a difficult task.

Mrs. Thielke's junior and senior Creative Writing students partnered with first graders in Mrs. Herzog's class at Adams School, learning what the first graders think high school is like, and using that input to write personalized stories with the first graders at the main character.
After a few visits, the writings were complete! Mrs. Herzog's students visited the high school for root beer floats and to receive their stories.
This was a Project Based Learning (PBL) opportunity for the high school and first grade students.

KSS High School students came through yet again for the Fergus Falls Area Food Shelf! Last Monday, Student Council members were able to deliver 988 pounds of food and $210 to the food shelf.
They see over 45 cars a day come through their lot to pick up needed food and supplies for local families. Our students rose to the challenge and helped to make a positive impact in our community! THANK YOU!
