Yesterday, Mrs. Marenda’s classes had a great time doing an interdisciplinary STEM activity. In science, they researched, designed and built catapults using recyclable materials. They then used them to launch marshmallows at a castle as part of their Middle Ages unit in World History.

The chicks have started hatching in Ms. Yunker’s class! They are part of her annual unit on embryology. Definitely a favorite unit for all the 6th graders. Special thank you to Trenton Powell for bringing in fertilized eggs and providing a good home to all of the hatched chicks.
