SPECIAL    PROJECTS

   4TH GRADE STUDENTS HAVE JUST COMPLETED A UNIT ON THE MOON PHASES. THE SUMMARIZING ACTIVITY WAS A DELICIOUS EDIBLE ACTIVITY WHERE THE STUDENTS TOOK OREO COOKIES, SEPARATED THEM AND REMOVED DIFFERENT AMOUNTS OF THE FILLING TO SIMULATE THE DIFFERENT SHAPES OF THE MOON. AFTER ALL 8 PHASES WERE CREATED, STUDENTS GOT TO INDULGE! VERY, VERY YUMMY!

   3RE GRADE STUDENTS ARE COMPLETING A UNIT STUDY ON FORCES AND MOTIONS. UPON COMPLETION OF THIS UNIT WE WILL START A UNIT ON HEAT, SOUND AND LIGHT ENERGY. WE WILL BE DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN PITCH AND VOLUME, MAKING SOME SIMPLE INSTRUMENTS TO PRODUCE SOUND, CREATING RAINBOWS, USING PRISMS TO SEPARATE LIGHT AND LEARN ALL ABOUT ENERGY.

   5TH GRADE STUDENTS ARE CURRENTLY STUDYING ABOUT ENERGY. WE WILL BE DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN POTENTIAL AND KINETIC ENERGY AND INVENTING HANDS ON ACTIVITIES TO DEMONSTRATE BOTH TYPES OF ENERGY.

         Remember to save box tops and milk tops for the PTO to raise funds for our playgrounds.
