Persuasively Putting a Stamp on Black History Month
To support this work, students read many mentor texts/articles. They did an amazing job highlighting the accomplishments of the individuals they researched and provided strong arguments as to why they should be on a US postal stamp.
Sussex Students Enjoy Our New Makerspace
Ms. Kelly introduced students to the app Blabberize. Blabberize is a fun utility that allows you to take any picture, put a mouth on that picture, and make it speak with your voice! Below some students are enjoying our new maker space area as they explored the Blabberize app. Ms. Kelly designed an activity where the students were tasked to find an everyday object and speak from the perspective of the object utilizing the Blabberize app to bring the object to life.

We Are All Artists- Mural Project
Thank you again to our AMAZING staff and parents who came to volunteer their time to assist our Mural Project.
Caren Olstead did a fantastic job incorporating the student's ideas of what a healthy mind and body are and how we should represent them. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Caren and her assistant Jaime.
