Summer School, 2010

Our teachers, Mrs. Burgess, Mrs. Mercier, Mr. Piwonski, & Mr. Tudryn plan fun activities that help us explore exciting topics, like ecosystems, & the solar system, while we read, write, & do math.

Blast Off!

On June 29th our friends & family came to our space museum.  While visiting they...
  • saw the solar system (complete with shooting stars)
  • read space poems (Acrostic, Free Verse, Collaborative, & Found)
  • saw non - fiction visualizations (about space from our reading)
  • listened to space pod casts (poems that we rehearsed with partners)
  • played math games (maintaining our computation, measurement, geometric, & number skills)
After watching Magic School Bus Out of This World, we created this Answer Garden which inspired a found poem!
