6th grade scientists "roasted" marshmallows to study heat transfer through conduction, convection and radiation. We love when science is fun, and tastes good too!

Spanish Students enjoyed a Rosca de Reyes after they completed their semester exams. Four lucky students found the hidden babies in their slice of cake. Traditionally a Rosca de Reyes (or Pan de Reyes) is eaten on January 6th and whoever finds the hidden baby will host a family gathering at their house.

In sixth grade social studies, students created Google Slideshows showcasing the eight traits of culture and how the traits relate to themselves. Sixth grade social studies students then presented their Culture projects at our annual Culture Day celebration. Students brought in artifacts and food to go along with their presentations and shared them with parents, students, and teachers. We had a wonderful time trying new foods and learning about other students' cultures.

Mr. DeBono led his U.S. History students on a scavenger hunt to study Westward expansion and the Gold Rush. Students played the role of ‘49ers in hopes of discovering gold out west. They looked for "gold nugget" QR codes to answer questions about the Gold Rush. The smiles on their faces say it all!
