Potato Stories

Social Studies

Our Founding Fathers

After researching a founding father, students created a project which explained the important role ther person played in the starting of our nation. Here are a few examples:

                                            

          Marissa & Ashley                                                                                  Watch Sierra and Janelle as they present

     talk about Alexander Hamilton                                                                           their video about John Adams

Planets & Seasons

             Students went to Greenbush where we learned more about our planets.  By doing lab activities, students developed a better understanding of the characteristics of those planets.  Students also produced a video explaining how and why we have seasons.
