STEM Rec Challenges December 4 - 8 Science Smell Focus Challenge. Humans are thought to be able to distinguish a trillion unique smells. We'll learn about how our nose recognises smells, compare our sense of smell to some animal super-smellers, and then see how how many of our mystery smells the students can identify. Engineering / Math / Art Foxville Christmas Village . Students will design and construct their own building to be included in our FDA Christmas Village. Students will then paint and decorate their building at the art station. The village will be on display through the month of December. We are hopeful this will be an exciting and unify project for our student body.  We need parents to help in the design/construction process and the painting/decorating process.

STEM Rec Challenges November 19-20, 2018 “Gratitude helps us grow and expand; gratitude brings joy and laughter  into our life and into the lives of all those around us.” This Thanksgiving week, we are so grateful for all the students who constantly bring joy into our life. They remind us to be happy for no reason and ask questions even the wise cannot dream up. We adore each and every one of them. In STEM this week we will be reviewing all the games we have learned, having a lego contest, and going outside as much as the weather permits. Have a wonderful fall break!  Note: Art will be doing a challenge with soda cans the week after Thanksgiving. If you have soda cans we could upcycle please donate them. Thank you!

Recently we've been practicing our prosody (reading with expression) using childhood favorites such as Judith Viorst's  Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day . The kids have gotten great at adding inflection and feeling to their reading; a key component of reading fluency. We just started working on adding actions to the stories we are reading. We spent a day practicing with Mercer Mayer's  There's a Nightmare in my Closet , using the text and picture clues to help us decide on actions that fit the story. Acting out a story helps support reading comprehension. This week we will continue practicing prosody and adding appropriate actions with the fable  Rumpelstiltskin . 4th - 6th Grade Spanish: The Spanish kids are soaring through lessons in their new language! With the help ...
