The South School celebrated National Puzzle Day with several types of puzzles set up around the cafeteria, giving students a chance to do some brain exercises, while having fun with classmates. There were traditional jigsaw puzzles, Jenga blocks, 3D puzzles, a station to make your own puzzle, and more! “Scientists have discovered that when we work on a jigsaw puzzle, we utilize both sides of the brain, improving memory, cognitive function and problem solving skills in the process,” the National Puzzle Day website states. Take a look at some pictures from Puzzle Day at the South School!

Here some pictures from a recent "Flashlight Friday" in Mrs. Russell’s 1st grade class at the South School! The students worked in partners to go on a digraph hunt using their flashlights. It was a fun review activity on a dark and dreary day!

We are saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. David Fisher, retired South Elementary School principal, on November 5, 2022 at the age of 77. Dr. Fisher was the principal at the South School for 30 years until his retirement in 2004. As his obituary notes, during that time he helped guide the education and support the families of 5,000 children. After his retirement, he served on the Stoughton School Committee. He also helped establish an annual fundraiser for the food pantries in Stoughton. We extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and former South School colleagues and students.

Third graders in Mrs. Johnson's class at the South School recently presented their "digital brown bag autobiographies." Students uploaded photos of five things that were special to them (people, pets, places, hobbies, favorite items, etc.) to share with their classmates so they could learn a little bit more about each other during the first month of school.

Second grade students in Mrs. DeMayo's class at the South School were given a challenge on the first day of school. They had to work together in small groups and stack cups to form a pyramid...but there was a twist - the cups spelled out a special message and had to be placed in a certain order. Take a look at the photos to see how each group did!
