// Curriculum Update: Week of Jan. 14 //

This week, the 5th level students had the opportunity to help out at the Atrium, a local retirement community.  Students played games with the residents, such as BINGO and card games. The 4th level students will visit the Atrium in the upcoming weeks. In History, we studied the difference between primary and secondary source documents which will help them conduct their own research writing this spring. In Science, students learned about the work of decomposers such as mushrooms and worms. In Writers’ Workshop, we are getting closer to publishing our memoirs by integrating final revisions and adding a conclusion.
