Another center helped with their math skills, as they identified symbols from the book and graphed them on paper, then answered questions about the graph. Another center helped students follow directions as they created a candy cane reindeer ornament. Finally they created jingle bell necklaces and enjoyed hot chocolate
and cookies.

The book fair was open to promote reading and help parents shop for the holiday. The event
was very well attended with over 150 people.]]>http://loganhocking.k12.oh.us/news.php?article=1266Mon, 09 Apr 2012 For math, we played bingo (we also used sight word bingo.)

The finalists were selected from nominations from across the state. The school staff submitted extensive written documentation substantiating the quality of their educational program in the following areas: Instructional System, Student Achievement, Student Development, Personnel, Administration, School Management, and Stakeholders.

Hall of Fame Award winners were chosen by two committees of principals; one of which read and scored the applications and the other conducted on-site evaluations of the schools.

Some of the things that were noted by the team that conducted the visit were: "The students and principal respect and care about each other! The teaching and support staff really value and cherish their young learners. Union Furnace staff understands value and use data to make decisions. They are lifelong learners as they continue the journey with the new common core standards and more frequent formative assessments. The working relationships among the staff can easily be seen. The students are very proud of their school and they are the first to tell you so. This is a community where the school is the heart. This Hall of Fame school is a perfect example of how the principal, staff and everyone who has a role in the positive functions of this school are America's future."

Congratulations Union Furnace Elementary!]]>http://loganhocking.k12.oh.us/news.php?article=1345Mon, 08 Oct 2012 Below are pictures from that event.

In addition to the many wonderful volunteers that helped lead student groups, we had other outside organizations including Alley Park, Clear Creek Metro Park, and the Logan Public Library help make the event a success. Students were treated to a beautiful day and a good time was had by all. ]]>http://loganhocking.k12.oh.us/news.php?article=1375Wed, 14 Nov 2012
