Today, we learned where pizza was invented, ITALY!! Then, we followed directions on how to draw a pizza. Finally, we discussed what shape a slice of pizza is, what shape a whole pizza is, and what sound we hear at the beginning of pizza! WE LOVE PIZZA!!!

Freshmen and sophomores are analyzing “The Hero’s Journey” within myths, stories, and even movies. Next week they start their mythology unit and will be comparing and contrasting the hero’s journey in their individual novels to Odysseus, the hero of Homer’s “Odyssey.”
Fifth graders worked collaboratively and developed a plan to create a map that promotes and encourages people to visit one of our National parks. Some of the students were able to make calls to the parks they researched. Finally, they presented their project to their peers.

Weathering and Erosion
Rock Cycle
Root Wedging and Ice Wedging Scavenger Hunt
Reminder: Please remember that we do not have school tomorrow due to the North-Central League teacher professional development. We look forward to seeing students back in the building on Tuesday.
The second graders are learning about erosion and the works of water in science. First, we explored the origin and destination of rivers and then discovered why there is sand on ocean beaches. Next up, we will learn how canyons form.
Our lovely visitor, Mrs. Lawson, gave the fifth graders a lesson about the importance of writing neat and legible. Studies show writing improves memory and students retain learning better through handwriting instead of typing. Being able to decipher both cursive and print is an important part of language literacy. Thank you Mrs. Lawson for visiting our classroom.
