On Nov. 2, 2015 Scientists came from the Clark Planetarium to instruct 4th, 5th and 6th graders about the art of science.  

 During the Clark Planetarium Assembly, a scientist demonstrated the shock wave.  Students lined up and held hands.  The first person touched a big round ball that had static electricity flowing through it.  Each person felt a shock from the electricity clear down the line.  Michael Lopez said, “It felt like lightening.”

Great Things Happening in 6th Grade

Submitted by joann.kirk on Mon, 11/09/2015 - 07:43

The 6th grade students have been studying Greece in their 6th grade class. This week, November 2 - 6, they talked about the differences and similarities between the Greek Olympics and the Olympics we have now. Then they held a mock pentathlon where they got to try out what the Olympics is like. Students competed in: paper plate discus throwing, cotton ball shotput, straw javelin, standing long jump, and clay on a spoon pole vault. The winners got medals. Here they are! Everyone had a great time!
