World Mental Health Day ๐Ÿ’™

Today is World Mental Health Day, a great reminder that taking care of our minds is just as important as taking care of our bodies. At Topeka Collegiate, we want every Eagle, and every member of our school family, to know that it's okay to talk about feelings, ask for help, and take time to recharge.

A few small ways to support mental health today (and every day):
๐ŸŒค๏ธ Check in with a friend or family member
๐ŸŒค๏ธ Take a few deep breaths when things feel overwhelming
๐ŸŒค๏ธ Get outside and move your body
๐ŸŒค๏ธ Practice kindness toward yourself and others

Our Eagles' wellbeing matters to us, now and always.

This week, naturalist and author Ken Lassman visited our 5th grade class to talk about all things nature! He shared how students can observe the changing seasons, pointed out key animal and plant behaviors to watch for in October, and brought in local plants for an up-close look.

Mr. Lassman also generously donated a copy of his book, Wild Douglas County, as a resource for our classroom.

Want to keep exploring the natural world around us? Check out his weekly blog, Kaw Valley Almanac.

Thank you, Mr. Lassman, for sharing your knowledge with our Eagles!

Our 4th grade students took learning beyond the book with a field trip exploring Native Americans of the Prairie. Through a presentation featuring authentic Native American artifacts, students learned how the Plains Indians of Kansas lived their lives.

They also visited animals at the zoo that held special importance to Kansas Natives, including bears, otters, eagles, and pronghorn, connecting history to the natural world around them. A hands-on way to bring Kansas history to life!

Hallway Spotlight: Halloween Art!

Our hallways are getting in the spooky season spirit! Students have been hard at work creating jack-o'-lanterns, Frankenstein's monsters, cheerful acorns, friendly crows, and even a few classic characters, each one bursting with personality and creativity.
This hallway display is proof that there's no shortage of imagination at Topeka Collegiate!

Our 8th grade spent two weeks studying the Cold War to prepare for a field trip to the Berlin Wall exhibit at Union Station. In their own words, here's a few things they learned and loved:

What they learned:
๐Ÿ’ฌ "There are multiple versions of the Berlin Wall and it changed over time."
๐Ÿ’ฌ "They had to dig under the wall with forks."
๐Ÿ’ฌ "There were metal spikes on the East side to injure people who tried to escape."

Favorite artifacts:
๐Ÿ’ฌ "The actual pieces of the Berlin Wall."
๐Ÿ’ฌ "The small model of Berlin and how it changed over time."

What a powerful way to bring history to life!

Take a peek into a day in our PreK classroom!

Our littlest Eagles have been busy building fine motor skills with colorful tissue paper crafts, practicing name writing and tracing, and working together on puzzles. They've explored calendar time and counting, built towers and creations with magnet tiles, and even dove into some imaginative dress-up play!

Every activity, from puzzles to pretend play, is helping our PreK Eagles build the skills they'll use for years to come. We love watching them learn through play!
