It was a perfect day for Nord’s Best Buddies to visit the Pumpkin Patch! #NordSchool

A big thanks to the awesome parents who made our Fall Party a success!

Have a safe, spooky and fun Halloween from our team! 🎃

Last week we wrapped up our study of the Maya Civilization. Students used Canva’s Magic Media app to create their own personal Mayan Glyphs!

5th grade- Please bring in your coins this week to help this worthwhile cause!

We spread the LOVE to our classmates and the students of Buncombe County Schools in NC today! They have something really special coming their way! 🫶🏻

The final total for our V-Day Service Project coin drive is in!!! Thank you #NordSchool students, staff, and families for donating $4,024.65 to Buncombe County Schools in NC!!! Thank you Nord PTO for all your support and for mailing our donation and cards!!

After finishing our Don Quixote Unit, our students used Canva's Magic Media Tool to create images of the infamous knight for their Time Magazine Covers. He looks great!

To introduce our Renaissance Unit, the students took a Google Earth Tour of Europe to visit locations important to the movement. Obviously we had to learn how to draw Mona Lisa 🖼️ 😏

We were busy with Right to Read Week Activities today. Dr. Koehler stopped in to speak to the kids about creative writing and his “So Many Secrets” book series. Also, a big thank you to Allie from Amherst Softball for reading a few chapters of our novel to us.!

We call this the “Michelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel Simulation.” Some comments I heard from the students: “Imagine if you dropped the paintbrush.” “Imagine if you dropped the paintbrush on your FACE.” “It took him how long?!” Mission Accomplished 😌

Amazing first day at Walter G. Nord School! Great to have our students back in the building!

All smiles on the first day at Nord!! Great start to the 25-26 school year! #CometPride

Lots of activity today learning about “Responsibility” and our classmates!

Shout to our student Henry for 3D printing ghost seals and spiders to sell in our PBIS Team Store! Second day of school and he’s already bringing his talents to the East Side of Nord! 🦭 🕷️

Teacher assistant for the day, Everly, helped update our postcard bulletin board. We need postcards from: CT, DE, HI, ME, MT, NE, NH, NJ, NC, ND, OK, RI, SC, & VT.

Butter and candle making is underway at Camp Fitch! We are trying “twisty candles” this year and the kids accepted the challenge! 🤩

Happy Birthday, Esther! Don’t give up the ship!
