Second graders are learning about characters in a story by reading a text and looking at illustrations. They are also learning to use details and evidence from a text to support their answers. Keep shining bright!
Kindergarten students are working to become play experts as part of their ELA unit "Toys and Play". Today, students practiced speaking, listening, and language standards as they explored attributes of toys and used descriptive language to discuss the toys in small groups.
Thank you to Ms. Schindler, Ms. Al-Takriti, Ms. Storino, and Dr. Johnson for putting together our first ELL Parent Information Night!
Friendly reminder about upcoming fall pictures! 📸
This afternoon Mokena Elementary School conducted its annual required lockdown drill. Students and staff did a great job in responding to the prompts required of the drill. A 911 call was placed and first responders activated in response to the drill as well. Our Mokena Police Department’s response was immediate. Please know that our students and staff are safe, and that any observed law enforcement response was not for an actual incident. The safety of our students and staff is always our top priority. Please contact the District if you have any questions or concerns.
