The 6th graders had a relaxed first day back to school after Spring Break. They started the day with a round of brain teasers and finishing their drone project reflections in their digital portfolios. We then had a fun time premiering each of the team's videos where they also shared some words about what they learned through the process of the project. Check out the final videos linked below!

In the afternoon, the 6th graders started their next unit: A Study of the City. They brainstormed what elements make up a city, and started thinking about what part of Boise they would be most interested in studying. The unit will end with a field trip to Downtown Boise planned and lead by the students. The hope is that students are able to practice independence and responsibility as they plan the trip and navigate the city. On Study of the City trips with past students, they also found a greater connection to their city and appreciation for the diversity and history of their home!
