Miss Plakos’s Fourth Grade Writers Take Learning Outside! ✏️🌿
Some of East's fourth graders took their writing lessons out to the garden last week! These classes have been working hard on parts of speech, writing conventions, complete sentences, and grammar. Out in the sunshine, they met with Ms. Macy, the Okanogan County School Garden Coordinator, for a hands-on adjective writing activity. Students explored the garden using descriptive language to bring their surroundings to life—combining nature, creativity, and learning! 🌻📚

Every day in school truly matters — when students show up consistently, they build strong relationships, grow their confidence, and set themselves up for success. Let’s keep the momentum going as we continue through October! Together, we can help every student in the Omak School District reach their goals by being present, engaged, and ready to learn each day.

4th Graders Take on Squash Bugs in the Garden!
This week, Macy Cunningham from Classroom in Bloom joined three of our 4th grade classes in the East Omak Elementary garden to teach about invasive bugs! Students put on gloves, used natural oils, and collected squash bugs that have been damaging our plants and produce.
Afterward, they discussed patterns of where the insects were found and what they noticed about their life cycles. Students who weren’t ready to handle the bugs contributed by drawing diagrams and sharing their observations.
We are so thankful to Macy for bringing hands-on science to our garden. She’ll be back soon to lead writing lessons in the garden with the other 4th grade classes—another exciting way to connect learning with the world around us!










In remembrance of September 11, 2001, East Omak Elementary held a moment of silence to honor the heroes and all who lost their lives. Mrs. Hilton’s 4th graders helped us commemorate the day with this meaningful artwork.
