Music

In Music this week the second grade spent time learning how to write music symbols. It can be overwhelming to learn all the music symbols. Hands-on activities help students connect the meaning of the music symbol when giving them time to draw and reflect.

 

Spanish

First grade Spanish students have been reading a story about families this week in the target language. Once students were able to show comprehension, they played a version of Win, Lose, or Draw to help students recall how to say the words themselves. They have done an amazing job!

 

First Grade

Our first grade students began their fun learning at APSU last week. The students will travel to APSU via CA bus and learn rhythmic activities such as locomotor pathway movement, gymnastics, and tumbling. These activities will improve motor learning and development and help them both inside and outside of the classroom. This active learning will be fun and educational. At the end of the semester, students will perform for parents demonstrating what they have learned.

 

Art News

Our first grade students have been studying the Elements of Art since school has started. The Elements of Art are the building blocks to creating all art: Line, Shape, Color, Form, Value, Space and Texture.  While studying the abstract artist, Wassily Kandinsky, we got to see different ways an artist could use lines and shapes. Using Kandinsky as inspiration, we created an abstract painting using watercolor paints for the background. Then to make our lines and shapes we stamped many different objects in black tempera paint. These paintings were incredibly successful, creative and you can find examples hanging in the main hallway (outside of the library)

 

Veterans Parade

On Thursday, September 15th, the second and third grade classes went to Liberty Park to watch a parade honoring our Veterans. The children showed their support and patriotism by waving flags and homemade signs thanking the Veterans for their service and sacrifice. Following the parade, both classes had a picnic lunch at the park.

 

3rd Grade

Third grade students have been sharpening their math skills working 3-digit subtraction with regrouping problems using Baiboard app on their iPads.

 

FUSE

Fifth graders classified plants using QR Codes that sent them to photos of plants and charts that guided them through the process of classification.

 

Fourth grade FUSE Science students are exploring ecosystems and biomes through a series of games and projects.

This week has been full of activities. AP Biology began a unit on the Biochemistry of Organisms. during class on Friday, the students used colored marshmallows and toothpicks to create 3D models of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Dual Enrollment Animal Science took a field trip to the Bratton Beef Cattle farm in Woodlawn. The students visited with a sick calf and her dame. Mr. Bratton showed the students the techniques he was using to bring the calf back to good health. They also learned about the feeding techniques he uses to finish a beef cow out for slaughter. honors Biology finished the unit on Classification of Organism this week by creating dichotomous keys for fictional creatures.

 

Honors Biology

This week in honors biology students created a dichotomous key using the taxonomy posters they designed.  

This week in honors anatomy and physiology students isolated the four categories of tissue and created slides using a chicken leg.  Students had to identify the specific nerve in their specimen and this group removed the marrow and made slides showing the hematopoietic tissue.

 

AP European History

The AP European History students are doing excellent things while studying the European explorers of the 15th and 16th century! In groups of 2-3, they are creating videos in iMovie to campaign for their specific explorer to be crowned the Explorer of the Century. Later, the whole class will watch all of the videos and decide for themselves which of the six explorers is the most significant. In the spirit of campaign season, they will cast votes in a Google Form. Below are some pictures of them hard at work researching, writing, and creating their short films.

Science

Bonnie Plant Farm sponsors a contest each year for Third graders.  They supply local schools cabbage plants, in late March, for each student to grow at home.  All our third graders took home cabbage plants.

Joe Wall photographed his cabbage plant that he named “BOB”.  Joe documented BOB’s growth for 11weeks, from March 27, 2016 – Harvest. Joe made chart entries on watering, weeding, fertilizing, and checking for bugs. BOB even spent a day at the Beach with the Wall Family.  Of course, after a long day at the Beach…the family was hungry.  BOB tasted great!

Joe Wall and Bob have entered a Nationwide Contest by the Bonnie Plant Cabbage Program.  Good Luck Joe (and BOB).

The remaining portion toward individual grades/classrooms. However, participation is optional. Throughout the sale there will be three different turn in dates and prizes will be awarded to students reaching certain goals. This is a fun time for our students and we hope you will join us.
