TEAM AWESOME WAS SPREADING KINDNESS AGAIN! 

The 4th and 5th grade Teen Life class delivered May Day baskets to the staff at central office this morning. The staff were appreciative and students had many observations to offer about how an office setting is different from a school setting. It was a fun, short trip!

On Thursday we had the opportunity to tour the Paine Art Center and learn about its history.  Special thanks to the OASD for organizing the tours! We did this first by creating our own floor plans and having a tour throughout the building. We are going to be able to present the floor plans to the class as well as hang them up in the classroom. It was a fun and exciting experience!

We also had time to walk across the street and tour the Oshkosh Public Museum. During our visit we had the opportunity to create a mini birtch bark basket. We even were able to see a real life size one! How cool is that? The kids loved the project and it was a great social studies lesson about the Native American culture in Wisconsin.

Mrs. Horn's Math 7 class had an opportunity to not only measure volume and solve math problems, but also could make Dirt Cake from the remaining materials.  Each student created a recipe card and made their own "Dirt Cake."  It was a delicious unit!

Negotiating a literary essay lesson with the 6-8 Social Studies/Lit students included an outside experience.  "They talked me into it…we made a deal," said Mrs. Horn.

It was not very warm, but the students were not going to admit it!
