Students in 3rd grade are learning about The Constitution of the United States through our new Reading program, Bookworms. Pictured is our "Student Choral Read-aloud with the teacher" process. We’ve read 3 whole books this year already!! #growingforthefuture
The annual 6th grade Fall Bulb Project is well underway. 6th graders weighed, measured, and sketched their daffodil and narcissus bulbs before planting. Predictions were made on bloom size compared to bulb size. We learned that while narcissus is the genus name for daffodil, in the flower market narcissus refers to a bulb that will produce multi stems and flowers. Daffodils usually have only one flower per bulb unless the bulb splits. We are excited to see the labors of our work but have to wait until March or April. In the meantime, we will keep records of air and ground temperature until we see the first sprouts of Spring.
ATTENTION PARENTS! Picture Retake Day for both buildings is NEXT WEEK - don't miss it! ELEMENTARY: Wednesday 11/6. JR/SR HIGH: Tuesday 11/5. Don't forget to order your pictures online: https://www.geskusphoto.com/
