Holiday Sing-A-Long

It wouldn't be the Holiday's without some holiday singing! 

Holiday Art

We did some art to get us in the mood for the Holiday's.  Students free handed these Reindeer and Santa's. We definitely have talented kids in our class!

Read-A-Thon

As a reward, we had a Read-A-Thon.  Good job, students!  I can't wait until we earn another one!

American Revolution

Here are some pictures of us learning about the American Revolution.

Taxation Without Representation

In order to have the students understand what the colonist might have felt about being taxed, we held a demonstration.  Jett was lucky enough to be the King of England, Kara and Taylor were members of Parliament, and Sammie and Nicholas had the popular jobs of being Tax Collectors.  Instead of using money, we used the much more valuable M&M's!  As you can tell, students were quite upset about being unfairly taxed!

Enjoy the Slide Show!

Band and Orchestra Performance

Here are some of the photo's from our band and orchestra concert.  Good job, guys!

6th Grade's Solar System Projects

To wrap up our Solar System unit, the 6th graders had to create a scale of the solar system using any materials that they wanted.  Some used foam balls, some used candy, and some came up with their own amazing ideas!  All of the projects turned out amazing.  I just wish I would have gotten pictures of all of them!  Good job, 6th Grade!

Meet the Master's

Mrs. Harvey came and taught us about Van Gogh and helped us re-create one of his most famous paintings "A Starry Night".  Students used oil pastels and black construction paper to create their masterpieces.   Thank you, Mrs. Harvey, for coming and teaching us this fun art project.

Moon Art

For a fun art project, we created "Moon Art."  We used white tempura paint and a wet sponge to create the texture of the moon on black construction paper.  Then, we used paper bowls to trace and cut out our moon.  We glued the moon onto another piece of black construction paper, then added star stickers to complete the picture.  This was a fun art project and everyone's looked amazing!

Farewell, Mr. Howe

As a way to thank Mr. Howe for being a wonderful Principal, we created this photo collage for him telling him how he has inspired us.  We will miss Mr. Howe, but we welcome Mrs. Christensen and look forward to getting to know her better.
