What's Been Happening Over Break


Even though school hasn't been in session, there has been a lot going on at SACS over break. When you come back you might notice that the stage in the big gym has been refinished, our hallways have been painted and touched up, our floors have been polished, and there was some balancing done our ventilation.

Sad News


We lost a very important member of our SACS family over the break. Our dear friend, Jo-An Baillargeon, who managed our kitchen for many years, passed away unexpectedly. Her absence will noticed by all our staff and students.  Teachers and staff will be speaking with students about "Jo-An's" passing first thing Monday morning in order to prepare them before they go to the cafeteria for lunch. We wanted to share this information with our families so that you will have a chance to speak with your children before they come back to school. Jo-An's enthusiasm and generosity of spirit will be greatly missed by all.  Our thoughts go out to her family at this time.

Gingerbread houses made by Team Triumph

News from Team Imagination

The 2nd graders on Team Imagination took part in a book auction called “Retell It to Sell It”!!!  Each student created a written retell of their favorite book from the classroom.   They also included the components of a story and then illustrated their favorite scene.  After presenting their book to the class, the students were then allowed to bid on the books.  Mrs. Konrad brought math to the event by having the bidders keep track of their money and make change.  The books went to the highest bidders and will remain in their independent reading boxes until the next auction.  It was a fun, creative way for the students to put their money skills to practice and use their retelling strategies to hook other readers in the class!


News from Dynamic Design


For the Holiday Season, the neighboring Dynamic Design and Investigators Learning Communities continued their tradition of building "Big & Little Buddy" relationships and celebrating the season!  The Dynamic Design "Big Buddies" (7th-8th graders) led their Investigator "Little Buddies" (1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders) through six activities in all the classrooms.  The activities included making coffee-filter-snowflakes, Reindeer goodie bags, a telling of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas'" with their own story books to color, games and puzzles, ornament making, and cookie making.  In the afternoon, every student was able to frost, decorate, and most importantly eat their own cookie.  Everyone had lots of fun - our buddies truly enjoy their time together and build lasting relationships!
 
 
Kindergarten Holiday Program
 
The Kindergarten Holiday Program was a huge success! They played to a packed house, singing six songs and ending with a dance to Shake Up The Happiness by Train. If you know the song, ask your child to teach you the steps.

SACS Assembly

It was a big day on Tuesday for St. Albans City School, with many things to celebrate. The entire school gathered in the gym, as the Senior Band, led by Mr. Mehaffey, played them in. Students from Team Renaissance presented a banner to the Investigators team for being the team that donated the most non-perishable food to the Cram the Complex food drive. Mrs. Lucas announced the top ten students in the SumDog competition. Mrs. Cavallo introduced the new Estimators cup trophy and announced that Mrs. Dean's class from Team Triumph won the Holiday Estimators Cup challenge and will be able to display the trophy until the next competition.  Representatives from each of the 7/8 communities had a chance to speak about the fund raising efforts made by our school, such as the penny war and the October 7th and 8th grade dance, to benefit the people who were affected by tropical storm Irene last summer. They also were able to speak on how the school came together to decide that all of the money raised by our various fundraisers should go to benefit The Northeast Organic Farming Association of Vermont (NOFA-VT) because by helping the farmers, everyone in Vermont gets the benefit of fresh, local food. Finally, a check was presented by three third grade students from The Travelers team for $1866.14 to Enid Wonnacott, the executive director of NOFA-VT. She thanked the SACS students for the support and spoke about some of the devastation felt by local farms and how much they appreciate the support given to them by our school.

Pep Rally



Team Imagination hosted a Pep Rally on Monday morning centered around making healthy food choices. The rally started off with each 1st grade-3rd grade community recognizing a few Safe Acheiving and Caring Superstars with certificates. Team Imagination students then introduced the crowd to "Choose My Plate" which is the USDA's guideline for healthy eating. Students from the team came out dressed as different types of food ranging from fruit, vegetables, milk, and grains to candy, french fries and soda. Students in the audience had a chance to shout out either "Put it in my plate" or "Only Sometimes" depending on what kind of food was presented. By the sounds of the shout-outs, SACS students definitely know how to make healthy choices!

Second Grade Pencil Challenge

On Wednesday, the second graders from each team gathered in the library to find out about a new challenge presented to them by Mrs. Cavallo. To illustrate an ongoing problem, their teachers put on a little skit showing the kids what it looks like when there is a test and students are not prepared. Even though the skit was very funny and entertaining, everyone definitely got the message... that it takes away from valuable instruction and learning time when students don't have pencils sharpened and ready at the beginning of each class. Each 1-3 Learning Community was given a bin containing 1000 pencils. The second grade is going to be in charge of the pencils for their whole community. They are challenged with making these pencils last until Thanksgiving 2012. Any team that can bring at least one pencil from the original 1000 presented to them to Mrs. Cavallo next Thanksgiving, wins! Their first step is to count and verify that their bin contains 1000 pencils. Once they do that, the challenge begins. Good Luck 2nd Graders!
News from The Travelers

The normal noise level of Mr. E’s class is gone on Wednesday mornings, not that the active third graders have nothing to say but they have a silent morning meeting. This is due to the two deaf children in his class. The rest of the class wanted to learn more about deafness, so through the help of Annie Coppock, teacher of the deaf and Hilda Costello, the rest of the class is learning American Sign Language.

The class starts with a greeting where the children silently greet each other with a question and receive signed answer. The kids later review vocabulary words and review their questioning techniques. New words are introduced and the kids will play a game using the words they have learned.

Mr. E. explained to the kids that they could be with their deaf classmates for years to come. It would be nice to be able to communicate with everyone in their class and they could really be a help to them even when they are not in their class. It has been proven that immersion is the best way to learn a new language it is evident from the signing taking place in Mr. Edwards’ class that immersion is working.


Third Grade Investigators Start a Card-Making Business

Third graders on the Investigator team have recently started a card making business. They are learning the ins and outs of what it means to design, produce, market, manage, ship and deliver a product. Each student in class has a production job ranging from gluing to stamping to tying ribbon, though everyone chips in when a job needs to be done. Leadership responsibilities include line leader managers, publicists, accountants, salespeople and more!

Students are currently in the process of decided what they’d like to do with the money they earn. Some would like to purchase sleds recess. Others are interested in finding a charity to donate a portion of the money.

Cards are currently for sale from Tuesday, December 13th –Friday December 16th. Please stop by our classroom, A-5, to speak to one of our salespeople and place your order. We are open for sales at the following times: 7:45-8:50, 12:30-1:45, 2:30-3:00

Team USA Presents Light Project to St. Albans City Council






Team USA took part in the St. Albans City Council meeting on Monday, December 12, 2011 to share their work on the St. Albans City street lights. The majority of the work was completed last spring, but with the needs and timing of the Council required the results to be shared this week. The background work included mapping the city lights by walking and locating all street lights. Students used detailed maps and GPS units to get accurate locations. This data was uploaded onto a Google Earth file and shared. Students also researched the pros and cons of street lights, discussed cost of running the lights, conducted polls about street lights, and created alternatives to our City's current lighting scenario.




At the council meeting, Team USA presented the Google Earth map, research on street lights and shared possible solutions to reducing the cost of street lights.




The Council and general audience appreciated the effort and time put into this project. The information shared was enlightening and impressed most people in attendance. Nice job, Team USA!





Project details, photos and videos are available at Team USA - St. Albans Light Project.

News from Team Discovery












Pictured above are Discovery students illustrating with Mr. Galle via Skype and JoinMe.



Mr. Allen provided some background on this lesson:
I was talking to Mr Galle about how my students were struggling with finding and using copyright-free images, and he suggested I have my students create their o
wn. Knowing my limitations, and his amazing abilities, I asked if he'd be willing to give a lesson to my students. We decided we'd take two afternoons for him to teach; the first lesson would be to teach illustrating on paper, and the second would teach illustrating with computers.



So, Monday and Tuesday were set aside for this to happen. Unfortunately, Mr. Galle was sick Monday, but he said he could teach the lesson over the Internet. We used Skype for audio and JoinMe to capture and share his tablet screen. It went AMAZING! The students worked hard and were very proud of the illustrations they had created.











On Tuesday, December 20th, Ms. Provost's 6th grade class will be making gingerbread houses. Photos will be taken showing the different steps: making a design, listing materials needed, construction steps and tips, and finally decorating!!!
