Florence Elementary School

Florence Third Grade Chemists work to determine the number of atoms represented in chemical formulas.

Florence Elementary held a 4K PACT activity for parents and students. 4K teacher, Mrs. Wolf read the students a story about colors, and the students were able to paint an umbrella with watercolors! PACT activities are a great way to prepare students for school, and for parents to meet one another. UW Extension and the Florence Elementary PTO were also represented to provide parents with resources. #GoFloCats

The Florence Elementary 4K students enjoyed a field trip to Crafters on Central. They created bird feeders and a painted handprint bird puzzle. Students and parents had a great time crafting together. Thank you to the staff at Crafters on Central for a wonderful outing!!

Happy Monday! #GoFloCats

The kids in the Florence Foodies Club have been having a lot of fun this quarter, and they think their club is awesome!  Caleb N., Aliza F., Chloe D., Connor C., Emmett P., Riley K., Dezi W., and Chloe B. are in the club this quarter.  During their club time, they make recipes and then eat food they create. When they are finished with their recipes, they get to play with  food toys together. So far they have made taco dip and smoothies.  They all really loved the taco dip. The ingredients they used are lettuce, tomato, cream cheese, and yogurt.  Some of the recipes they make need a microwave, and some do not.
