Mrs. Boren's class went on a "Sound Walk" to learn more about sound waves!
Starting this week, we will have a weekly poem to memorize in the fifth grade hallway! You can take a paper home to help you memorize the poem if you want. Anyone that comes to recite the poem to either Mrs. Snow or Mrs. Andersen will get a treat! Enjoy this fun activity. P.S. This is for ALL grades.
Students in Mrs. Webb's class have been learning about the Middle Ages. Recently they worked to find the positives and negatives of living in a town in the Middle Ages. They thought one of the biggest negatives was not having flushing toilets. No one liked the idea of using a chamber pot!
We had several students this week turn in 25 Proactive Paws to have their photo taken with a friend! They were Sophie, hazel, Layton, Ellie, Bennett and Phoenix! Way to be awesome leaders Park Panthers!
In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month 4th grade students explored a Zapotec legend from Oaxaca, Mexico: “The Woman Who Outshone the Sun.” Gathered from the oral traditions of the Zapotec people of Southern Mexico, the story tells about a mysterious and magical woman, Lucia Zembrano, who visits a mountain village accompanied by her pet iguana. Students role-played Lucia, the villagers, the river, fish and otters. Park’s drama integration coach, Mrs. Bean, directed the students in their classroom re-enactments.
When students show leadership, they earn Proactive Paws. Kaiya has been an amazing leader and saved up 100 Proactive Paws and got to use Mrs. Lindley's chair for a day!
Students in 4th grade have been learning about energy transfer. They are putting their knowledge to the test and making Rube Goldberg machines that would knock a marker off of their desk using only items in their desk!
