Today our (very sleepy) 6th graders continued the discussion on Wisdom for their social/emotional lesson and explored levers for their main unit work. There was a big focus on vocabulary today. The students identified 6 terms from an article on wisdom that they wanted to introduce to their vocabulary that can be found on the 6th Grade Work Bank page.
In a couple weeks, students will begin their main unit project, building a mechanical costume/giant puppet, by applying their understanding of simple machines. Check out some inspirational projects below!
As we begin our school year and face new challenges, we are seeking new ways to enrich your child's education both in person and virtually. Our current wish list includes a set of classroom cameras, a Tello drone kit, Rubiks Cubes, graphic novels, and more enriching art and tech!

(I'll start posting as soon as I have confirmed which students from each school are on the No Photo List. Thanks for your patience!)
