Weekly Newsletter

In honor of Bike To School Week, Jim Lindberg and I will once again be taking interested students on a bike ride to school this Thursday, May 24. We would love (desperately need) to have have some parents join us for the ride. Permission slips went home last week.

The BIG 6 Projects are due on Tuesday and parents have a chance to see them during the Spring Open House Tuesday night (6:15-6:45 PM).  You can download the entire Big 6 packet by clicking Big 6 Project 2012. Students chose a topic related to the U.S. Constitution and did their research based on that topic.

Along with the research, students completed two main components:

1) Create a visual

AND

2) Write a research paper

OR

Produce and film a mini-documentary

OR

Write and create an Xtranormal online cartoon

OR

Design and build a website

Students were given a pocket folder and a manilla folder with six attached envelopes to help organize the research. Five envelopes will be for essential questions and the sixth envelope will be for sources.
