  • Dear Maire Families, We Welcomed
    MAIRE ELEMENTARY ● Sonja Franchett, Principal Each and Every Child, Each and Every Day March 25, 2015 Dear Maire Families, We welcomed Spring this year with our amazing Maire Fair. This whole-school carnival event represented almost 100% participation of our Maire students and families. The funds raised, along with our upcoming Parent Auction on May 2nd, will be spread out over the next three years to purchase building improvements, classroom and technology supplies, assembly and curriculum enrichment opportunities, and outside/garden/playground upgrades. Our entire Maire Staff thanks the parents and PTO folks who put forth tremendous effort in making our fundraising efforts both fun and successful. Along with our Carnival success, students and teachers at Maire have been engaged and learning in a wide variety of projects and enrichment experiences this past month. Fifth graders have been researching countries throughout the world to prepare for their EXPO projects and to create presentations about the Spanish speaking world. Fourth graders visited the capitol at Lansing, and learned about people’s differences in a day-long “Disability Awareness” workshop. They also created their own businesses and marketed and tested their own vehicles in a STEM engineering project facilitated by Ms. Moir and some of our automotive engineering parents. Second graders have been studying about local businesses, and will begin research of famous people for the Living Museum. Third grade students have been honing their Michigan history skills, and will begin research about famous Michigan products for a Made in Michigan project. First graders and kindergarteners are continuing to grow their writing and reading skills during Readers and Writers Workshop every day! During lunchtime enrichment students are choosing to write their own creative plays, work with ceramics, grow their knitting skills, sing in lunch choir, and learn about geography and cultures of the world in the Passport Club.
