Colonial Day in 3rd grade

1/27/2017

0 Comments

 
Third graders enjoyed traveling to 1757 as we celebrated Colonial Day in our classroom. Using ink wells and quills, the students practiced cursive in their horn books. With no electricity, the students created lanterns to light the room. The colonial students enjoyed bread and cake that they made for lunch and of course, washed their bowls in our wash basins!  Colonial Day will remain fondly in our hearts and minds for many, many years to come.

Drama director Christine Cooke-MacVittie, in collaboration with the 7/8 grade students, wrote Reboot, an original play about a group of tech-addicted teens who are sent off to a rehab camp where the counselors are not what they seem.
Fifth grade students are making their own jump ropes in art class!
The Mystery Reader Program brings a special guest—parents, grandparents, and other teachers—into the classroom each week to introduce the students to a new book.
