This week, 8th grade students in Mrs.Townsend and Mrs. Newman's classes have been working on a cross-curricular project in Social Studies and ELA; students have been researching Indigenous Peoples' Day. Based on their research, students have been collaboratively working on group projects to present to the elementary classrooms next week. Students had the choice of creating a slideshow, a blog, a news article, or a storybook. Students also had to create an individual infographic to highlight the 5Ws of Indigenous People's Day. The students have been very engaged in this project, and they are excited about presenting their final products next week!
The Madalitso Band from Malawi (southeastern Africa) put on a performance for over 300 Wethersfield students and staff today in the elementary. Our music teacher, Mrs. Hagaman, was contacted by Crossroads Cultural Connections about having the Madalitso Band perform at Wethersfield and were sponsored by the Wethersfield Music Boosters in order to bring the unique experience to our students. The group played guitar, foot drums, and babatones. Both the foot drum and the babatone are homemade instruments. The students learned some words in our guests native language and used them to help sing along during the performance.

In Mrs. DeValkenaere's 5th grade social studies class, students are working collaboratively as they learned about the Dust Bowl. Students read a passage and had to answer questions about the severe dust storms during the drought of the 1930's. To prove their answers, they had to highlight evidence in the text. Thank you Mrs. Newman for capturing our students hard at work!
Mrs. Bryan’s 5th grade students met with their 1st grade buddies in Mrs. Hand’s class on Friday. They enjoyed getting to know each other while working on a scavenger hunt.

There have been some AMAZING things happening in the junior/senior high school... from building thinking classrooms in pre-calculus, to analyzing pond water & identifying organisms using a field guide in 7th grade science, to thinking out loud in a Socratic Seminar to have a deeper understanding of a text in 7th grade ELA, to conducting a chemistry lab on the Mole Concept, and to creating Picasso self-portraits and poems along with collages in the junior high literature and fine arts class. It is so awesome seeing students actively engaged in their learning!
