Fun Finale Tomorrow

Tomorrow we will celebrate these fun and wonderful children!

Proctor Work A Day

Thank you to the Proctor students who came to help us for Work-A-Day!

Principal for the Day

Look at this dapper Principal for the Day!  Sam and I had the most wonderful day, but he was definitely exhausted.  We conducted security checks, announced extra recess, did bus notes, answered phones, planned an assembly, did learning walks and more.  He did a wonderful job and is ready for the job himself ASAP!

Neal Nichols, Geography Extraordinaire

Cape Cod artist Neal Nichols carries the world in his head and he brought it to Steward School today!  For years, Neal has devoted his life to world travel. In 1992, his travels, combined with his artistic abilities and photographic memory, led to the creation of The Geography Gameshow. This is an interactive learning experience which captivated our students today!

With a marker, some paper, and a few souvenirs from his world travels, Nichols engaged in a whirlwind game show demonstration by drawing maps of the world, the US and the state of Massachusetts in a few moments from memory and then quizzing the students on the locations of various countries, cities, and geographical features.

Grade 3 Weather Workshop

The children recently had a visit from The Discovery Museum in Acton. The 3rd graders participate in experiments to reinforce their understanding about the role of temperature, humidity, air pressure and the water cycle in making weather.  They also learned about weather instruments and information that can be found from these devices.

Bus Simulation

As we near the end of school, it is important to remember our bus rules, especially during field trip time. Some of our second graders helped me to simulate a bus ride and everyone paid attention to the moving chicken as the driver had to "turn around" when she became distracted. Great job role playing second graders!! 

The 100th Day in Three Day K

Children in Mrs. Casagrande's class celebrated their 100th day!

Mr. Zajas and Miss Swanson

Mr. Zajas and Miss Swanson have been building excitement around playing an instrument for those students going to Proctor. They introduced different brass and wind instruments and even did a lovely duet of The Star Spangled Banner. 

Preschoolers Learn from the "Big Kids"

Students in Miss Judy's class enjoyed being read to by children in Mr. Kilham's class. Children in Miss Carol's class practiced "EEKK" (reading elbow to elbow and/or knee to knee) with students in Miss Sideri's class. 

Lindsay and Her Puppet Pals

The preschoolers had a fun time with Lindsay this morning and all her puppet pals! 

Third Grade Poetry Share

Third graders have been working tirelessly to write, edit and publish their own poetry. This morning was a showcase of this extraordinary work, as well as an opportunity to practice their presentation skills. Two girls wrote about me and I couldn't have been more honored! 

Inquiry Circle on the Rainforest

A group of second graders worked to gather information about the sections of the rainforest and the animals that live there. Great job!

 

A Whale in School?

Children in second grade had a once in a lifetime experience with our whale expert, Cinde McInnis. They went inside a whale...in their gym! The children learned so much about these magical creatures. Thank you, Mrs. McInnis!
