For-Mar visited Dillon Elementary and brought along some interesting friends!  They taught the third grade students about predators and prey. They even played a game to help learn the concept.

Miss Anderson, Our Media Specialist, meets with students once a week and they read out of a book series called Junior Great Books. Then they have discussions about the stories they read. Thank you Miss Anderson for having this book club!

Our interactive programs are modeled around the Michigan Grade Level Content Expectations (GLCEs), making For-Mar programs great reinforcement tools for enhancing science concepts already taught in your classroom. We use a variety of interpretive techniques to keep students engaged and excited about learning. These techniques include activities, demonstrations, and multimedia presentations.

We have three different presentations this presentation was on the Water Cycle.

This school-wide performance tells the story of NED, a lovable cartoon character whose name is an acronym for Never give up, Encourage others, and Do your best. It’s a simple, memorable message designed to teach valuable lessons that help kids become champions at school and in life.

Building off the excitement surrounding NED, the schools we visit are able to improve student behavior, strengthen test scores and create a school culture where every child believes that they are a champion.

Meet our new Reading Friends in the Media Center!   Bella and DD on some of the days Mrs. Hanson is here!  Your child may have the chance to sit down and read with them!

Shy kids who are reluctant readers frequently benefit from working with a specialized tutor. Surprisingly, the best tutor for a shy child often has four legs.  Children reading with these trained dogs tend to improve their reading scores by 12 and 30 percent!  Children who are participating in these programs also tend to want to read more and become more comfortable with their reading skills.

The students who raised $75 or more got to ride in a limo to McDonalds to eat lunch one day!  Congrats to those students!

Mrs. Cameron’s Class read a story about Mustaches, then they were able to grow their own mustaches!

All Students who had perfect attendance in the Month of October got a special time to play on the Ipad’s or play with the Wii.  Congrats and keep it up, we will continue this every month!
