Harmony was practicing Adele's "Skyfall" this week. Wow! Can't wait for concert season!
Mrs. Piscopo's Kinders were busy working on letters and sounds this week! They are getting more confident all the time!
Mrs. Lamar taught some computer skills in small groups this week.
From Mrs. Sleeper:
"We went outside to practice our letters with chalk yesterday with kindergarten! They had to run to the letter I called out and then tell me the sound that letter makes. We also practiced writing names and letters in chalk and even spelled and sounded out some words!!"
From Miss Hilt:
"Physical science students created a balloon rocket to demonstrate Newton's 3 Laws of Motion!"
From Miss Dailey:
"Today, we practiced 2 syllable words by matching 1 syllable cards together to make words! The kids thought it was so nice, we did it twice!!"
The student lounge area is a great learning space for a small group!
From Mrs. Schreck:
"Each text in the next reading unit focuses on animal adaptations. Students participated in an activity today that helped them learn the meaning of adapting and adaptation. After reading a book about a chameleon changing colors, students created their own chameleons to camouflage around the classroom. This was a great way to introduce this new vocabulary word!"
Students reviewed the compare and contrast nonfiction text structure during whole group reading. As an introduction activity, students found similarities and differences about classmates in a real life venn diagram! Students used sticky notes to label each person with similarities and differences! Mrs. Schreck and Mrs. Hammers even joined in on the fun!

Varsity soccer has began Kaysinger conference tourney play. Play began Monday with a 0-6 loss to Sacred Heart.
Tuesday the Tigers faced Smithton. With several opportunities in the first half, the Tigers got a goal just over 15 minutes into the first half. Wyatt Crawford got thru the defense and pushed the ball past the keeper where Trent Sawyer was able to put the ball in the back of the net.
With just under 20 minutes remaining in the game Smithton managed to tie the game. Both teams pressed to break the tie in the final minutes with your Tigers coming up just short on several opportunities but the game remained tied.
The final tourney game will be Friday with a time TBD.

Mr. Taylor's students have been studying ancient Mesopotamia. They recently learned about the Epic of Gilgamesh. On Friday, they tried their hand at cuneiform writing using clay and toothpicks.
