Terra Nova Testing - DONE!

WOO-HOO...The students finished their week of Terra Nova Testing. What a relief! I am so proud of their hard work. Thank you to all the parents that donated snacks and drinks throughout the week. Taking breaks was essential for our brains and it was great for them to get energized between tests!

PreSchool Buddies - Becoming Scientists

We got to meet our Preschool Buddies today. Our class is paired up with the new "High Fivers" Program. The students started off by listening to a story and then we became "scientists" with our buddies making different colors with food coloring. They turned those colors into an art project for the preschoolers. What better way to end the project, but with a snack. We will do at least three more projects with them!

8th Grade Egg Drop

We were able to go and watch one 8th grade class to the annual Egg Drop this morning. The 8th graders build devices that weigh less than 40 grams. They drop these devices from a 2nd floor window with an egg inside with the hopes of the egg not break. What great weather they had!

Art - 3D Self Portraits

For our recent Art Project, students created 3-D Self-Portraits. They needed to come up with 8 symbols that represent them, their talents, and interests. They created symbols for each strip and drew them in a repeated pattern.
