Ida Grove Elementary Falcons of the Week 💜
OABCIG Middle School & Elementary's will recognize Red Ribbon Week from October 28- November 1st. Red Ribbon Week is the longest-running and largest drug awareness and prevention program in the United States that started in 1985.
On Monday, the 3rd graders in Ida Grove had a chance to write riddles about ocean animals. Students researched their animals to discover facts that they could turn into clues, and then let their classmates guess which ocean animal they were writing about.
This year we are trying something new - we are offering a separate P-8 yearbook for $25! We are so excited to offer a separate yearbook with the big dream of highlighting more of the amazing things the students are doing in their classes! With this 24-32 page book, we can include more candids and sports photos from middle school.
The yearbook will be delivered before the end of the school year allowing the students the fun opportunity to have their friends and teachers sign their copy.

Today the Ida Grove 4th grade students got to do a science experiment to help learn more about cellular respiration. The science demonstration was showing that carbon dioxide, which is a gas, results from sugar and yeast being mixed together. The students learned that the bottle with sugar blew up the balloon at a much higher rate than the bottle with just yeast.
