Maple Grove Charter School has a job opportunity available!

2x the fun! It was double the fun on April 22nd when Maple Grove learners celebrated an Earth Day themed reading incentive! The activities included make your own dirt cups and wind chime kits! As we approach the last month of the school year, it would be so fulfilling to have a reading incentive in which all 105 learners met their goal! This last incentive was so close having 102 of 105 meet it. Keep up the reading 😊📚🐛🌎

Learners and school staff at Maple Grove were able to practice their stewardship skills last week! Students cleaned up the brush in the woods, raked leaves, cleaned windows, swept the blacktop, and freshen up our garden space. Thank you to our learners for all your hard work in keeping Maple Grove a beautiful place to learn and grow! 🌎 ❤️

Families and staff members from Maple Grove Charter School joined the Ghidorzi Green and Clean crew to showcase their stewardship trait on Saturday. Thanks to those who help honor Earth Day everyday by keeping trash and recyclables off of the roadways.

Third grade students at Maple Grove Charter School had quite a memorable field trip with the partnerships of the Fromm Brother's Historical Preservation and the Wisconsin Trapper's Association. Entailed were a competitive Bingo game of Fromm history, a 2 mile round trip walk, gained knowledge about ginseng, fox and mink farming, personal encounters with historical elements like corded telephones, drinking fountains and score your own bowling. They also simulated a distemper game that shows the importance of vaccinations. After all of that, students learned about the ethics, safety, supplies and benefits of trapping furbearers. You couldn’t of asked for a better extension of the text Bright With Silver.

Ms. Szutkowski's students are taking their learning into the wild, soaking up the sun (and knowledge) in our outdoor classroom. Amidst planning and writing essays, we were serendaded by the sweet melodies of birdsong and stopped intermittently to identify the calls and add them to our "birdwatch" list. 🐦‍⬛🍃

Ms. Etten’s first grade class at Maple Grove Charter School studies everything birds in the Spring! Everything from birds amazing bodies to caring for birds. Many of these expeditions take us outside filling the feeders, making feeders out of recycled materials, providing dog fur for birds to add to their nests, or looking at different feathers and bones. There are so many first time experiences and memories that come with this time of year at MGCS. When thinking of Spring and Easter, it was a perfect opportunity to make the learning applicable in a number of hands on activities! Learners achieved the ability to describe how egg shells absorb natural color as well as the anatomy of a hen egg following a dissection! Color variations were a result of different amounts of time as well as dye potency. Different jobs required someone to monitor the time, change the natural dyes, and make scientific conclusions. The dissection of the hen egg taught the different parts of the egg including the membrane, chalaza, albumen, yolk, and egg white. We are feeling educated and ready to start our incubating of this years baby chicks!🐥🐣

What a fun and educational day Maple Grove's 4th grade students had at Council Grounds State Park recently. Our experience was led by Sandy Benton who taught us all about energy. A few experiments were conducted where we learned about the difference in potential and kinetic energy. We then met with a crew from Wisconsin Public Service and were given a tour of the dam. We were taught alot but also given the opportunity to ask many great questions. Thank you to Sandy and WPS for this special opportunity!
