In ELA, students will continue our unit on Frederick Douglass’ narrative.

In social studies, we will begin by looking at the Native populations here and the subsequent contact with European colonizers.

In science, we will be working the local forest service on understanding our watershed ecology and learning more about the organization of different life systems.
Updates and Info

We earned over $1100  from our Run-Walk-A-Thon! Thank you to families and communities for supporting our extracurricular activities! This week students drew conclusions about slavery and the abolition movement from articles we read in English. In science, we reflected on our field trip and learned about the organization of life. During social studies, we read about the different Native American groups in North America in 1500.


Come check out our display of photos, paragraphs and thank you notes generated by the field trip!
