Book Madness – In the spirit of the “March Madness” NCAA basketball tournament, students are participating in our “Book Madness” favorite book bracket. We have spent the months of February and March studying award winning books highlighting men and women authors of color. Students journal in their “scouting report” and we look forward to our class “vote”, to see which books make it to the championship round. Students seem to love different books for a variety of reasons so we are looking forward to seeing which book is the favorite. Along with reading aloud, journaling, and discussion, E6 recreats art, customs, and food that celebrate the culture of the artist.
Science Madness – Students have spent most of March learning about flowering plants and the fruit they produce. The 6th year garden harvested peas, students participated in a backyard leaf search, they built greenhouses (some even survived the high winds and rain), and of course dissected fruit.
History Madness: Students put together presentations on famous navigators of the 15th century. Groups made quilts, artifacts, powerpoint presentations, and, of course, food. (There seems to be a theme here!) Students are still sailing across the Atlantic to the New World. So far all of the crews have survived but we will see if they can make it back for the glory of Spain.
Pi Madness – Cayden Yamaguchi is our “Pi Queen”! She was able to recite 276 characters of Pi from memory! It was definitely madness! Congratulations, Cayden, on your hard work and determination. The class was so proud of you!!!
Teacher Appreciation Week Madness – The teachers of E6 would like to thank all of the families for their kind words, thoughtful gifts, coffee, and sweet treats! We feel so appreciated and loved by our students, families, and the entire FMS community. We wish you a relaxing and laughter filled spring break. See you in April! Enjoy 😀
BTW: The teachers of E6 have some favorite teams in the March Madness NCAA basketball tournament. #GoDucks #
