Acadia monitor Amy Farrigan MADE this gorgeous Chess/Checkers table and generously gifted it to the Acadia Library! Students are already enjoying it!
In Randy Symonds Middle School Technology class students were learning about the “center of mass,” and had a hands on experience while learning.
Students in Ms. St. John’s 6th grade social studies classes analyzed Paleolithic cave art and created their own prehistoric drawings. They worked as anthropologists to create a story about each drawing.
After completing a unit on the characteristics of different genres and how to identify them, students in Mrs. Potter’s Grade 6-2 Reading classes participated in a “Starbooks” Book Tasting. Students moved from station to station to “taste”, “sip”, and “read” from several different genres.
Mr. Symond’s classes observed Mr. Verhagen’s construction classes and got to tour the new home the class is building. From here, Mr. Symond’s class will be constructing a scale model house just like the one at the High School. The students are having a blast!
Students in 8th grade Technology had a unique opportunity for their first project. Each 8th grade technology student sanded wood blanks and LASER cut a personal ruler to use throughout the year. Pictured here are some of the students designing, engraving, and using their rulers.
Mrs. Clermont’s tribuilding Accelerated Art celebrated finishing their first assignment (Folder Design) with a class critique outside. The students all presented their work on benches in the morning sunlight. We had a nice walkabout where we viewed each other’s work and shared positive comments to each other using our art vocabulary
