FINANCIAL AID DAY
Mrs. Jacks’s classes learned about constellations and how the constellations appear to move throughout the seasons. The students made their constellations using marshmallows and toothpicks. Students also made constellations on card stock paper, hole punched the holes(stars) out and used a flashlight to shine them on the wall, creating a projection of their constellation. They also talked about why the sun appears to be brighter than any other star.

Mrs. Jacks's students started constructing pinball machines from cereal boxes today in order to show Newton's laws of motion in action during tomorrow's class time.
Mrs. Dalton's 8th grade science students are working on an individual "Natural Hazard Research Project" in which the information gathered will be presented to their classmates formally. Some of the Research Topics (Natural Disasters) are not common, such as Solar Flares, Limnic Eruptions, and Sink Holes. She invited Mrs. Rotkiewicz to her classes to help teach students how to conduct research safely, use reliable sources, and to cite their sources properly to avoid Plagiarism. After an initial lesson, students were able to choose their topic, and choose their presentation method, and are well on their way to completing their project.
