Lower School News: October 16 – October 20, 2017

FUSE

5th grade FUSE students researched important figures from the American Revolution, creating Bottle Buddy representations of their individuals.  They presented their projects to classmates, sharing the information that they learned. Revolutionary Bottle Buddies are now on display in the Clarksville Academy library!

 

4th grade FUSE students took a virtual field using Google Earth to visit the different regions of the United States that Native Americans lived in.

 

4th grade FUSE students created an informative paragraph about the Natives they are currently learning about in Social Studies class.  They supported the details of their writing by creating a Popplet organizer using their iPads.
