SHILOH CUSD 1

EIU open gym is open to the public

Jr. High boys basketball schedule and 5th/6th boys basketball schedule

To celebrate the last day of the first quarter, Ms. Jones treated the Shiloh staff to Crumbl cookies and chips! It’s been a busy and rewarding start to the school year, and this sweet (and salty) surprise was the perfect way to wrap up Quarter 1. Thank you, Ms. Jones, for always taking care of your team!

“I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE”

A willy worm!

Praying Mantis eggs!

Jumpy crickets!

Tall Big Blue Stem Grass!

Exploring the Shiloh Prairie behind the school Wednesday morning, PIP families followed retired science teacher Kendra Saddoris as she led a tour and talked about the various plants, insects, and animals that live in the grassy plot and wetland area. In addition, Shiloh Superintendent Morgan Wilhoit and Principal Amy Jones joined the walk and welcomed everyone who came out on the cool morning. The children practiced using their sense of sight, smell, and touch as they collected various items including milkweed fluff, stalks, leaves, blooms, and seed pods in bags and by attaching their “treasures” to sticky bracelets. After walking the trails in the Prairie, the littles enjoyed playing in a fall-themed sensory bin, trying a ring-toss game with gourds, selecting a new book, and adopting a mini pumpkin to take home.

JV Football

Elementary students had a blast flying kites during PE with Ms. Sisk! Perfect weather, bright smiles, and lots of teamwork made for a fun and active day outdoors.

There will be a meeting for any High School boy interested in playing basketball this year. It will be on Thursday, October 30 in room 11 at Shiloh. The meeting will be 5pm-7pm.

✨ Mrs. Climaco’s third-grade class wrapped up Matilda by Roald Dahl this week, and what better way to celebrate than with the movie (and snacks, of course)! 🎉🍿

Their treats were inspired by the story itself:
🍿 Popcorn for movie fun
🍫 Smarties for our brilliant Matilda
🦎 Gummy lizards for Ms. Trunchbull’s glass
🍰 Chocolate cupcakes for Bruce Bogtrotter’s cake
📚 Rice Krispies treats for Matilda’s beloved books

Such a sweet ending to a classic read! 💛📖

Mrs. Elizabeth's PreK class has been learning about where our food comes from. They learned that farmers plant a lot of our food we eat! They went on an adventure to the nearby field to see the corn that is growing.

GRANDPARENTS ARE SO MUCH FUN!

To celebrate Grandparents Day, PIP hosted a Group Connection on September 17th in the PIP Room at the Newman Community Building focusing on cognitive development. Eleven children brought their 5 moms, 9 grandmas, 2 grandpas, and 2 aunts to join them in singing about how happy grandparents make them, listening to a fall book being read, creating seasonal art with apple stamps, digging in apple- and lemon-scented sensory bins, and, of course, playing with all the toys. Everyone loved spending the morning catching-up with their friends, making new memories and selecting a book about grandparents to take home.
