Bridging school and home… April 2018
Spanish III
Señora Collins’ Spanish III students recently finished unit 4 by exploring the cuisine of the
Spanish speaking world. Students researched dishes, presented to the class how to make
them, and then shared the dish with their classmates. The food was all delicious!

Hello from the LMC~
The High School Library Media Center is more than just a library. It is a learning commons,
where students can come to read and check out books of course, but can also find re-
sources, use devices, study, collaborate, research and decompress from their busy lives.
This past month students have been able to visit the library and de-stress by coloring.
“Coloring is meditative - it allows us to mindfully focus on one thing at a time, to steer
clear of stress using detractions. The benefits of the practice have been endorsed by the
American Art Therapy Association (AATA).” Coloring pages are on display and available at
any time for students to come work on. They are a collaborative effort and are put on dis-
play once complete. Students are not only benefiting from this activity, they are proud of
their work and adding beautiful pictures to the LMC.
We also have many new books coming in! Please encourage your student to visit the LMC
and see what’s new. Did you know our fiction collection is genre-fied? Students are able to
browse books by category, aka genre, rather than by the Dewey Decimal System. It is a way
of organizing materials for people who are looking for a type of book rather than a specific
title or author. By genrefying a high school library it helps teens find quality titles they may
have never thought of trying. Genrefying also helps to connect students with the books
they are interested in. If a student loves sports, they can go to the Sports genre section
and choose a book from this section. The genres we sort by are: General/Realistic Fiction,
Science Fiction/Fantasy, Relationships/Romance, Classics, Action/Adventure, Mystery/
Suspense, Historical Fiction and Sports. Ask your student their favorite genre and why they
like it!
As always we are happy to help students find the information and resources they are look-
ing for. If at any time, there are questions please feel free to contact us.

Advanced Biology visitors
Former EHS alumnus Hunter Johnson visited 4th block Advanced Biology with his design
team from the UW-Madison Biomedical Engineering Department on Tuesday, March 20th.
They discussed Biomaterials and Stem Cells, then completed an activity with the students.
Stem cells are unique since they can turn into any of the cell types in the body. Advanced
Biology students simulated placing stem cells into scaffolding, and then repairing injured
‘hearts’ by implanting them with the stem cells. Students also had a great discussion with
the UW-Madison MBE students on what to expect in college. Thanks to the UW-Madison
BME for coming by and giving the students an introduction on how to use tissue engineer-
ing to repair cardiac damage!
Evansville FFA News
On March 4th, the Evansville FFA hosted the 27th Annual Farm Toy Show. The students ran
a very successful food stand and a number of activities for children including a pedal trac-
tor race, coloring station, toy tarp, and the Kiddie Pedal Pull. The FFA Alumni did an amaz-
ing job putting the event together and it was a huge success. We are very pleased to have
had such great participation from students and community members.
The Evansville FFA Parliamentary Procedure team won the District 13 Speaking Contest and
competed in the Section 5 Contest on March 8th. The team members worked hard to pre-
pare for the contest and placed 2nd overall! Congratulations on a fantastic job: Grace Fen-
rick, Emma Jorgensen, Allee Rolon, Hannah Vanthournout, Abbey Miller, and Braly Wiser.
On March 15, 5 teams competed in the Regional Career Development Events.

We are very excited that the Dairy Cattle Evaluation Team placed 3rd overall and will be
competing at the State FFA Judging Contest in April!
The Evansville Greenhouse Classes have been hard at work propagating, planting, trans-
planting, and caring for a variety of bedding plants and vegetables. We will be having our
Annual Bedding Plant Sale in May.
On February 23rd-24th three Junior Evansville students traveled to Wisconsin Rapids to at-
tend the FFA Farm Forum. These students included Madison Minor, Grace Fenrick, and
Christina Judd. At this conference they spent time swimming, playing interactive card
games and get to know you games, attended workshops on post-high school agricultural
opportunities, social media, agricultural advocacy and leadership. Everyone enjoyed every
part of the conference from the keynote speaker and workshops, to socializing with mem-
bers from other chapters across the state.
The Evansville FFA is a student run organization focused on “Premier Leadership, Personal
Growth, and Career Success.” We are able to accomplish these objectives through a combi-
nation of classroom and lab education, Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE), and op-
portunities in the FFA. The FFA offers student leadership workshops and conferences, State
and National Conventions, and Leadership Development Events (speaking contests), and
Career Development Events (judging contests) that allow students to use what they have
learned and compete against other FFA members. We are able to do all of these things with
the incredible support of the Evansville FFA Alumni, Evansville Community School District,
and the Evansville Community. Thank you!

Let’s Move!
We all know staying active is undeniably one of the most important things a person can do to ward off disease and live healthfully, however, making physical activity a priority can be challenging. Here is some information to help you get active and stay active, for life.
Start slowly. Gradually build up to at least 30 minutes of activity on most or all days of the week.
Exercise at the same time of day, so it becomes a regular part of your lifestyle.
Find a convenient time and place to do activities, whether it is at a gym, community center, or home.
Keep your expectations reasonable; don’t get discouraged if you have set backs or need to stop for a while.
Make it fun! Choose activities that are fun, add variety, ask family and friends to join you, and listen to music or audio books to keep you entertained.
Track and celebrate successes, no matter how big or small. Success is success, no matter the size.
Let’s celebrate physical activity and commit to being more
active on a regular basis.
