💗 Wear Pink on October 22 for Breast Cancer Awareness Month! 💗
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness and show support for everyone whose lives have been touched by breast cancer. 💕 Whether you're honoring a loved one, celebrating a survivor or standing with someone currently fighting breast cancer, wearing pink is a simple way to share a message of hope, strength and encouragement.💪🩷
🌸 Join Bedford County Schools in wearing pink on October 22! Let's come together to honor those we've lost, celebrate survivors and remind those facing this journey that they are not alone. Every voice matters, every act of kindness counts and together, we can make a difference! 🫶

🍎👩🏫 Inspiring Future Educators, One Classroom at a Time! 📚
Ms. Melody Redd’s Teaching as a Profession II (TAP II) students and FCCLA members from Shelbyville Central High School are gaining valuable hands-on experience at Southside Elementary School while making a difference for young learners! ❤️
Through weekly job shadowing, students assist mentor teachers in various classrooms. They also partnered with kindergarten teachers Ms. Feck & Ms. Melson to celebrate National Be a Teacher Day, an event designed to spark interest in #education as a future career. To prepare, TAP II students designed and created their own teaching-themed shirts! 👕🍎
During the event, #students read books about teaching, helped kindergarteners explore the qualities of a great teacher and led a fun game of “Principal Says” to help students practice listening, communication and following directions. The kindergarteners also received teacher-themed goodie bags! 📚🎁
TAP II students and FCCLA members also donated shoe-tying practice tools and specially designed shoelaces to help kindergarteners develop this important skill. In December, they plan to host an ice cream party to celebrate students who have learned to tie their shoes and give them a chance to show off their accomplishments! 👟🍦
From exploring future careers to building essential life skills, these students are putting their knowledge into action and making a positive impact at Southside Elementary!🌟

Our second graders are getting hands-on with multiplication! ✨
They used Play-Doh to create arrays and then wrote the matching repeated addition sentences right on their desks. Learning math is always more fun when we can build it, see it, and make it come to life! 🧮💙
