Mrs. Bowden's class had their heads in the clouds again.... literally! The Astronomy class took a trip to the Bowling Green State University Planetarium, where they had the opportunity to learn from Dr. Dellenbusch! Students got a behind-the-scenes look at how the planetarium operates and experienced an immersive, multimedia presentation all about black holes.

Afterward, they put their knowledge to the test by identifying the stars, planets, and constellations they’ve been studying this month. This hands-on experience will help prepare them for upcoming stargazing events at the park next month!

Mrs. Wissman’s class has been enjoying a fun tradition all year long—welcoming Mystery Readers into their classroom! From parents and grandparents to Ada Schools staff and teachers, each visit brings excitement, curiosity, and engaging read-aloud stories.

Before each visit, Mrs. Wissman shares clues to help students guess who their special guest might be… and the anticipation is half the fun!

This week’s Mystery Reader was one of our very own Ada Elementary gems—Mrs. Collins! After 20 years of warmly greeting students and families as our Elementary Secretary, she brought her same joy and energy into the classroom. Students loved listening to Fat Cat on the Mat and Cooking with the Grinch—she truly made the stories come to life!

We are so grateful for the time, care, and enthusiasm our Mystery Readers bring to our students. And we are especially lucky to have Mrs. Collins as part of our Ada family!

This week Mrs. Bowden’s Astronomy class took learning beyond the classroom with a visit to the ONU Observatory. Students had the incredible opportunity to learn from Dr. Jason Pinkney, who shared his expertise on the Sun.

From sunspots and solar flares to prominences, students gained a deeper understanding of our closest star—and even got to safely observe it through specially equipped telescopes!

Hands-on experiences like this bring science to life and spark curiosity in amazing ways.
