We have enjoyed building new relationships with our new classmates Science class teaches the students the importance of cooperative learning and working together with peers while working with hand-on materials. In sixth grade the students work on Power Point presentations in the computer lab and learn how to use technology to enhance their projects for the regular classrooms. As part of the sixth grade unit on ancient Roman culture, the students had a dress-up day to continue their study of the customs of this early civilization. The students enjoyed feasting on foods which were a part of the Roman culture such as olives, fresh bread, cheese, and fresh fruit. We think Nanosaur could win a contest for the most popular free time computer game.
Sunflowers are a favorite of our teacher.
She grew these beauties on her farm in the country. To celebrate the new millennium our class decided to make individual time capsules. Students brought pictures and memories of the last century to add to their capsules. Sixth grade has been a great year and we have built friendships that will last a lifetime while we were busy learning.
