From Mrs. Maxon:
"Here, 7th graders took some time to practice blind continual contour line drawing. They had to draw a partner's face without lifting their pencil off the paper or looking at their paper."
From Mrs. Maxon:
"This is a picture of 1st grade, they are learning about weaving for our next project, so we went outside to practice weaving on a large scale."
This 8th grader had a DELICIOUS presentation in Mrs. Fitzwilliam's class--"How to Make Coconut Sorbet!"
Mrs. Z's American Heritage class studied Mary Church Terrell's major address before the National American Woman Suffrage Association in 1898. Students summarized each paragraph in their own words before Mrs. Z gave model examples to write in their notes. Super interesting!!! This woman was ahead of her time!
3rd graders have fallen in love with chapter books this year! Series! Genres! Favorite authors!
Reading fluency and comprehension practice is happening in 2nd grade small groups!
Mrs. Z's American Heritage students are prepping for the 2024 National History Day state contest on Saturday, April 27, 2024 at the University of Missouri-Columbia!!! Good luck, Tigers!
From Mrs. Miller:
"This is my 6th hour Family & Consumer Resource Management class. They have all finished their 9-patch pillows and are ready to take them home for a nice nap. A few of the students are gifting them to parents. I am so proud of the way they worked so hard to learn a new craft!"
