Pics from the Week













I'll be posting a curricular note soon. In the meantime, here are some photos from the week. You'll see students working on maps of Africa, bridge design and construction, geometry activities, hiking during PSD and participating as a team member in an Australian belay.

Tomorrow is an exciting benchmark for fifth graders. A good two thirds of the class will travel to Montreal with parent chaperones and Johanna. The home-stay visit with pen pals promises to be a special and unique opportunity.

On Tuesday of next week, we'll travel to New England Youth Theater to see Roald Dahl's James and the Giant Peach. Rachel is in the play as well as Issac Freitas-Eagan! The performance will kick off our next literature unit. We'll be reading Dahl's classic story and writing a series of creative additions to his tale.
