It’s All Greek to Me!
By Zach Hargraves
6th Grader
I have learned a lot at the new school, Rees, but my favorite was the Greeks Olympics. The Olympics was our final celebration that we did on our unit about Ancient Greece. This included reading Percy Jackson, visiting with the Oracle of Delphi, and even reading articles about Greek philosophy and clothing.
Watch for this paper to come home today with the details of the PTA cookie dough fundraiser. The cookie dough is YUMMY, and the proceeds benefit Rees so it's a win win!!
These third graders have something to brag about! Seventeen students received their first math brag tag for completing 45 of the 60 multiplication problems in three minutes. Three of those earned an additional brag tag for getting all 60 correct! Additionally, each class had three recipients earn a student recognition award. These are for the student of the month from each class and those who have been demonstrating S.O.A.R. qualities throughout October. Congrats to these awesome students!
We are super excited to welcome 4 artists to Rees next week for our 4,5,6 grade Artist in Residence experience. This year we will be hosting Marilyn Berrett (Dance), Roz Newman (Photography), Elaine Brewster (Musical Theater), and Cheri Gibb (Ceramics). Students have selected their artist of choice and will have the opportunity to learn techniques and skills from these professionals. We will have a showcase on **NOVEMBER 16th at 1:30**. All art will be on display and we welcome parents to come and enjoy a performance or stroll through the art gallery
