We are Off to a Great Start


Our first week has been busy and full of getting to know one another, getting settled in, and learning a lot of different things.

One project in science class has had students observing very carefully; focusing all their attention on some very "familiar" objects. What great questions they have asked and what wonderful details they have noticed as they have used all of their senses to explore the intricacies of ... oranges!


We also got both homerooms together after lunch this afternoon and took a picture of the whole group of sixth grade students so that we could have a picture to send to our pen pals at Long Cheng Middle School in China. So here we are... the 2007-2008 sixth grade class. What a great looking group -- don't you think?
