Weeks 9 - 13: Miscellany


I take a lot of photos over the course of a week. Here's a smattering of odds and ends from recent weeks. 


Juna is camera shy. 

Her classmates are not.




Henry!





Guest artist Leslie Sobel came to share her work with us several weeks ago. The middle school recently visited an exhibition of her work at the Village Theater in Canton. Monica has an entry up on her Middle School Art Blog as well.








Touring the theater















Nick!







We've been studying body systems in Science. Here are some photos of our class constructing a device to simulate the lung. 









And here we see kids puzzling through the muscular-skeletal system. They are attempting to construct a "muscle" that mimics the hinge joint of the human elbow.









Silent reading time:









Each Monday morning, the whole school gathers for an assembly. Here, the student government representatives articulate and demonstrate the rights and responsibilities that they have come up with.






Using the windows as a giant light box for tracing.








Bora!






As part of our exploration of the various body systems, we've been constructing paper models of ourselves with each system taped inside. It's yielded some odd photo opportunities.















We led the school assembly on Monday, November 23rd. We opted to talk about our three class values, demonstrated by brief skits.







Grandfriends Day!






Here we are playing 'Jenkins Says' with our Grandfriends. (Ask your kids/Grandfriends about the rules. It's fun!)




Giving the Grandfriends a tour of the school. "The Cove" is always a popular stop. 




Preparing scenery for the school play:








Winter is coming.
