All fifth graders at Polenta Elementary were recently treated to a robot demonstration by the G-Force Robotics Team. Polenta's STEM Enhancement Teacher Lauren McCall invited the team to visit, building on the students' STEM curriculum.
The all-female team showed off the robot they built named SPITFIRE, answered lots of questions from the students, and donated books to the media center encouraging girls in STEM. ⚙🗜

Jesus is always a great example to our class to work hard and do his best. He follows directions, participates in class, cheers on other students, and shows amazing work. Mrs. Williams says she appreciate how he solves any conflict by talking first with his peers and then with her. He never complains; in fact, he starts every day with a smile and a high five. He pays excellent attention and is always kind and respectful to everyone. Congratulations Jesus for being our Puma of the week!
Thanksgiving reminds us to give thanks and to count our blessings. We are blessed to be able to enjoy life, and we must remember that each and every day. Spend time with your family and friends and remind them, you are thankful for them and what they do for you. From the Administration and Staff of Polenta, we would like wish each of you a Happy Thanksgiving!
Look at the cute turkeys that were disguised for our turkey contest. These were the winners from each grade level. Pre-K Mrs. Bracy's class, Kindergarten Ms. Simon's class, 1st Grade - Mrs. Sousa's class, 2nd Grade - Mrs. Vero's class, 3rd Grade - Mrs. Morse's class, 4th Grade - Ms. Lucus' class, 5th Grade - Mrs. Brown's class. Congratulations to these classes on their hard work. There were some good looking turkeys out there.
We found a flock of turkeys visiting our school today. We enjoyed visiting each classroom. While we were walking, we had to turn it into a trot as we had some hunters sneak up behind us. We hope you all have a thankful, fabulous, fun- filled Thanksgiving Break!
