Sugaring With Shumlin

We were fortunate to start the week at the Yandow's Maple Sugar operation with Vermont's own Governor Shumlin. It was a chilly wet morning, but Mosaic represented WCS with their SMART thinking and behavior. We even made the local news and Williston Observer! Here are some photos of the day.

This week we have been hard at work on our Passion Projects. Students have been researching their topic and we discussed ways to search online safely and efficiently. Then we discussed how researchers skim passages looking for answers to their questions. Next students used their questions to create subheadings and organize their reports in a Google Doc template. Once their report is written they will use that information to create a presentation. Some will make trifolds or posters, while others will create Google slide presentations. We are looking forward to sharing our passion projects with you next Tuesday, March 22nd at 8:00am. 

If you would like to sign up for a spring conference you can do so on the Important Dates sidebar of the blog. Just click on your student's teacher's link and follow the directions to secure a time.  We look forward to chatting with you next week.
