Challenger Learning Center Field Trip/End of the Year

Congratulations to all 5th Grade GATE students on achieving great success at their Challenger field trips!  Both groups worked hard, had great team work, followed directions well, listened well and made great choices in their decisions.  They certainly overcame obstacles and applied what they learned about comets.  I know that the students enjoyed their mission by the smiles on their faces!

I made movies of each group and have attached them to this post.  I hope you enjoy seeing yourself and reliving your experience at the Challenger Learning Center.  Comet Ban-Way 2012 is the Bannes and Fernway students.  Comet KMM 2012 is the Keller, McAuliffe and Millennium students.  Enjoy the shows!!

Best wishes to all the 5th Grade GATE students as they enter middle school.  It has been a joy to teach all of you and get to know all of this year's GATE students.  You made me smile, laugh, and kept me on my toes throughout the year.  I learned so much with you this year.  I am looking forward to hearing about all your accomplishments during 6th, 7th, and 8th Grades. 

Have a wonderful summer!  Keep in touch!

Roy Lichtenstein at The Art Institute

The Art Institute has a new show highlighting the work of the pop artist, Roy Lichtenstein.  I thought some of you might find this interesting.  Click on the link to see a video of how a show is displayed and how long it takes to put a show like this together.
