2019 brings great energy and enthusiasm for new goals and the end of the school year in sight. Students came back from Winter Break ready for learning and growing! We began our month with a wonderful snowstorm that provide the children a great source of entertainment during recess!
We have begun a new book during our literature study time. We are reading a Newbery award winning historical fiction, Island of the Blue Dolphins, by Scott O’Dell. This classic is always enjoyed by students. We will be reading together and completing activities that correlate to to the story. In
math, the students are progressing through our lessons and problem solving practice. Every student set new year goals to improve accuracy and endurance through difficult problems.
Finally,
middle school students are most excited for their Project Culmination in January. They will be presenting what they have learned about Single Stream Recycling to other students, the faculty and their parents. This goes well beyond how to sort your recycling. They have learned about sorting machines, recycling centers, exporting issues with purity of product, etc. They are well informed and ready to apply this knowledge to help our improve the environment.
Thanks for your continued support of learning every day at Rohan Woods!
