Have you ever heard someone say, "love is a battlefield" or "he has a heart of stone"? These are examples of figurative language. Students in Mrs. Mercer's class have been working through 9 different stations to refresh what they know about Figurative Language. They’ve reviewed definitions, looked at examples of each type of figurative language, and done some fun activities to practice writing and identifying figurative language in literature.

How do you make choosing partners in school fair? With a paper toss! To ensure random pairings and help kids stay active during review and refresher activities, Coach Dexter lets students toss paper "snowballs" with numbers inside. The students then pick up a paper to see what numbers they get and match up with the student who has the same number!

History in the making?! Coach Dexter's History classes are reviewing their history concepts covered in the fall. They are making movie posters over the American Revolution. Learning all about history is more fun when you start creating exciting posters for events like the Battle of Saratoga, Battle of Bunker Hill, the Life of Nathan Hale, and The Crossing of the Delaware. Plus, you get to work together in the commons!

What do you do with cilantro? You make salsa of course!
Growing Beyond Earth is a classroom-based citizen science project operated in partnership with NASA, designed to advance NASA research on growing plants in space. Our 6th grade STEM students collected data on the growth of Cilantro and Basil to test its viability and ability to grow in a simulated ISS (International Space Station) growth chamber. After we gathered all of our data and submitted it to NASA, we celebrated & ate salsa!
