January After School Science
How do you get an Egg-in-a-Bottle without touching it? Students will learn how in this Air themed class. They’ll also learn how to inflate an 8-foot-long Windbag with just one breath of air. Nothing short of amazing! Saving the best for last, students will build and race a balloon powered car. Ready, set, blow!
Help us spread the MODness!!!
Dear Families,
Help us spread the MODness! Silver Springs will be hosting a fundraiser at Mod Pizza on Tuesday, January 24th. Silver Springs staff will be making pizzas for families, so you don't want to miss it!
Girls on the Run
It is that time of year again! Girls on the Run spring registration is quickly approaching and we are in need of parent volunteers to keep the program at Silver Springs. Girls on the Run is available for 3-5 grade girls. It gives them the opportunity to exercise, develop friendships, participate in team building activities, and learn how to handle difficult situations. Spring season is March 13th-May 26th. Parents need to commit to 1-2 days per week after school.
If you are interested in volunteering for this program or have more questions, please contact Pam Schulman schulmpa@northvlleschools.org
Supporting the The 7 Habits at home!
Habit 1 – Be Proactive – “I’m in Charge of Me”
What this means: Take charge of your own life. Make it happen. Don't wait for someone else to do it.
“I am responsible for me.”
“I do the right thing before I am asked.”
“I do the right thing even when no one is looking.”
“I do not blame others for my actions.”
How can I do this in my life?
1. If you do something wrong, say you are sorry before someone asks you to apologize.
2. When you get mad and want to say something, stop, think, and ask yourself-
Why am I getting so angry? Make a good choice in a good way.
