PICTURES VOYAGERS/IMAGINATION MENTORING SESSION Once again the Voyagers 5th graders and Imagination 1st graders were paired for an activity on a Friday (12-2-2022). Ms. Bachand shared pictures of the students spelling and doing math on table tops covered with shaving cream. Quite a bit of mess. Lots of fun. 12-2-2022. Link to 21 Pictures. SPANISH CLASS - PRITCHARD Students have been learning Spanish through project-based-learning tasks. In this case, Ms. Pritchard asked students to pick a Central or South American city and make up to four slides about it. They had to note the present season of year where their chosen city is located and express what the weather is like with a few specific temperature or rainfall numbers. They also had to present an activity they would like to do there, what time it would take place and for how long. The cost of the activity would also need to be mentioned. Colorful pictures of the city and activities needed to be found. Finally, they had to bravely stand in front of their peers and present their slide show in Spanish. They all did extremely well and will clearly be ready to launch into more extensive Spanish language classes once they move on to BFA. Link to 7 Photos. ENTERPRISING 8TH GRADERS DOING CLEAN-UP SERVICE WORK AROUND SCHOOL Please check out this 30-second video explaining what these students have been doing and what they are offering.
