II. Legislative Meeting Minutes of May 23, 2019 1 June 27, 2019

National Anthem – Mustang Chorale – Under direction of Ms. Jeanette Verdeur Roll Call Art Display: Siena Drummond, Sean Holst-Rightley, Derek Pham and Andrea Strasser Media Elementary School’s fourth grade students learned about the life and artwork of Wayne Thiebaud, the 98-year-old American painter who lives in California. Inspired by Thiebaud, students learned to draw a three-dimensional form when drawing a doughnut from a side view. They colored a paper with oil pastels with patterns for a table and for a wall. They brushed tempera paint over the oil pastels, and while the paint was wet, scratched texture combs over the surface to remove some paint and to create designs. After collaging the doughnut with an actual doily, students added 3-dimensional paint sprinkles to the icing. The final projects are so realistic that they look good enough to eat!

I. Items for Legislative Meeting

The committee reviewed the items for the Legislative agenda for June 27, 2019.

Action: These items were moved to the June 27, 2019 Legislative agenda for a vote of the Board.

II. Summer Bus Cleaning pay rate

Mr. Haupert shared with the Board, that the Administration has been struggling to find people to perform this type of work at the current pay rate of $12.00/hr. To resolve this matter, the administration will be requesting approval to raise the rate to $15.00/hr. This change would cost an extra $1,200.00 this fiscal year. The transportation budget can absorb this increase in cost.

Action: This item was moved to the June 21, 2019 Legislative agenda for a vote of the Board.

III. Summer Custodian/Maintenance pay rate

Mr. Haupert also spoke about the difficult time the Administration is having hiring people to work as a summer custodian/maintenance worker. The current pay rate of $12.00/hr. Therefore, the administration is requesting approval to raise the rate to $15.00/hr. This change would cost an extra $24.00 per person per day. The maintenance/custodian budget can absorb this increase in costs.

Action: This item was moved to the June 21, 2019 Legislative agenda for a vote of the Board.

Children First..….Always!

IV. Substitute Custodian pay rate

Mr. Haupert addressed the extremely difficult challenge of finding people who are willing to be on-call as a substitute custodian at the current pay rate of $12.00/hr. This pay rate been the same for over ten years now, which has led to us not having anyone interested in working as an on-call substitute custodian. The administration is requesting approval to raise the rate to $15.00/hr. This change would cost an extra $24.00 per person per day. The maintenance/custodian budget can absorb this increase in costs.

Action: This item was moved to the June 21, 2019 Legislative agenda for a vote of the Board.

V. Benefit Consultant for 2019-2020

The consulting agreement with Arthur J. Gallagher and Associates is up for renewal on July 1st. Mr. Haupert spoke about the invaluable service this consultant provides to the District and its employees. The renewal cost is $30,000.00 for 2019-2020 fiscal year. Mr. Haupert has included money in the Office of Human Resources budget to cover the costs of this agreement. Based on the past three years with Arthur J. Gallagher and Associates and their successes on behalf of the District and their involvement with the Delaware County Healthcare Trust, Mr. Haupert is requesting the Board of School Directors approve the agreement with Arthur J. Gallagher during the June 27th legislative meeting.

Action: This item was moved to the June 21, 2019 Legislative agenda for a vote of the Board.

VI. Substitute Teacher/Aide Provider Contract for 2019-2020

Mr. Haupert presented on the substitute teacher/aide provider contract for 2019-2020. The contract with Substitute Teacher Service (STS) expires on June 30, 2019. Since November, Mr. Haupert has been communicating with three firms that provide substitute teacher/aide placement services. Each firm displayed considerable interest in our school district. They listened to the District’s needs regarding filling substitute assignments. Each firm made a proposal that I am able to present to the Board for your consideration.

Mr. Haupert received three proposals from the three organizations. Substitute Teacher Service quoted us a markup rate of 26%, Kelly Educational Staffing is proposing a markup of 28% and Insight is proposing a markup of 32%.

Looking at the total amount of substitutes used during the 2017-2018 school year (used because it was a completed year of data), the difference between STS and Kelly Educational Staffing proposals based on 3,920 subs for $110.00 a day is $12,936.00. A rather small amount in a budget item of $900,000, so to, Mr. Haupert, it comes down to which company makes a better business partner. Mr. Haupert went on to describe why Kelly Educational Staffing would be the better business partner at this point-in-time for the 2019-2020 school year. He expressed the frustrations the principals are having with STS and his concerns regarding STS’s customer service and creativity in recruiting substitute teachers and aides. Mr. Haupert also spoke about the benefit of Kelly Education and the use of Aesop. Aesop is the computer software that we must purchase Children First..….Always! in order to place subs within the schools. With Kelly Educational Staffing, the District will be able to recoup the $15,824 paid to Frontline (the company that owns Aesop).

After reviewing the three proposals and knowing the quality of work performed by Kelly Educational Staffing, it is Mr. Haupert’s recommendation that the District enter into an agreement with Kelly Educational Staffing.

Action: This item was moved to the June 21, 2019 Legislative agenda for a vote of the Board.

The next Human Resources Committee meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, September 10, 2019.

SCHOOL REPORT’S – June 27, 2019

GLENWOOD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

We finished the year strong at Glenwood with many great field trips, lessons, and activities. Kindergarten held their “Popcorn Word Carnival” with games and activities centered around their “popcorn words” (words that “POP” out of your mouth). Our first grade students counted down the ABC’s by celebrating a different letter every day (starting off with writing their Autobiography for “A” and they will end with “ZOOMing” out of 1st grade!). Second grade spelled out “GLENWOOD”, on the second day for “L” they wrote a Letter to a buddy in 1st grade explaining what to expect when they move on to 2nd grade. Third grade finished the year with their “Social Issues Book Club”, learning empathy for others’ experiences that shaped that person’s world. Fourth grade wrapped up their American History unit with a trip to Historic Philadelphia, and fifth grade learned even more about our nation’s history with a trip to Washington, DC.

Glenwood welcomed a new club this year, open to 4th grade students, Glenwood Running Intramural Team (GRIT). Each week a new topic was introduced, relating to our Glenwood goals of being Ready, Respectful, and Responsible. Teachers also reviewed goals and allowed students to push themselves during their training… and the club ended their season by participating in the community event, “Run the Lane”. We held a Family Pasta Dinner the night before the run, we had many family members join us at the race, and we are pleased to say the Inaugural GRIT club was a huge success… Special thank you to Mrs. Gray, Mrs. Squires & Mrs. Bruno for making this club possible, creating the lessons, and supporting our 4th grade students!

School Reports 1 June 27, 2019

One of our favorite traditions is the Penncrest Clap-Out. Seniors have the opportunity to visit their elementary school the morning before graduation practice, as they walk the hallways one last time as a Rose Tree Media student! We were thrilled to see so many Glenwood alums… friends, neighbors, even siblings!!! Many Penncrest parents waited in front of the school, and visited with Mr. Dougherty (Assistant Superintendent), who was the principal when these students attended Glenwood.

INDIAN LANE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

MEDIA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Kindergarten Kindergartners have been exercising their reading muscles by studying non-fiction text and writing their first research papers! We learned how to use different texts to find three

School Reports 2 June 27, 2019 different facts about a chosen topic. We introduced our students to analog and digital clocks and how to tell time to the hour. We also have learned the name and value of a penny, nickel, dime and quarter! We celebrated the end of the year with a day full of activities including a Letter People Parade and games on the field in honor of the hard work our students put forth this year!

First Grade This month first grade students created a summer bucket list in writing. They had the opportunity to list things they hope to accomplish this summer. A few students have shared that they hope to read 100 books, visit new and exciting places and go camping. Students also created a Farewell to First Grade poster. The poster highlights the many activities students participated in throughout the 2018-2019 school year. In math, the first graders learned how to count coins using touchpoints. In reading, we finished our book groups and began interactive read alouds. We have had a very busy June.

Second Grade The caterpillars arrived in June! It was fun watching them go through the life cycle stages as they learned about metamorphosis. The classes had the opportunity to travel to the Philadelphia Insectarium and Butterfly Pavilion where they had an opportunity to see other insects in conjunction with our science unit. In addition to these fun learning experiences, the Second Graders also enjoyed the 1st/2nd grade picnic, the MES Book Swap, and the Media Café!

Third Grade Students in third grade at Media Elementary have finished their final writing unit, Fairy Tales. Students read traditional fairy tales and then adapted them. Students learned to change the character, the setting, events, and character motivation. They then published the fairy tales and shared them with first grade students. In Science, third graders have finished their unit on magnetism and electricity. They worked to create circuits and electromagnets. In Social Studies, they learned about the economy.

Fourth Grade Fourth grade students took several trips that aligned with the social studies curriculum. One was to the Colonial Plantation at . While there, students learned how to make candles, get water from a well, card and spin wool into yarn, play colonial games, and tend farm animals. Students also visited the Delaware County Court House this month. They toured many of the departments that service the residents of the county. Students were particularly interested in the Evidence Room, Witness Room, and the jail cells. They took part in a mock trial in one of the beautiful court rooms.

Fifth Grade Fifth grade students are ending their time at Media Elementary School on a positive note. We visited the Museum of the American Revolution and toured important historical sites in Philadelphia. During our Fifth Grade Recognition, students celebrated the culmination of their elementary school years in a beautiful ceremony. During writing, students wrote letters to Media Elementary School staff members as a token of their appreciation for their support throughout elementary school.

School Reports 3 June 27, 2019

Music The Mustang Chorale participated in the American Young Voices Concert held at Temple University. Under the direction of renowned conductor Francisco Nunez, the singers were joined by 2000 other students from the Philadelphia Metro Area sharing an evening of music selected especially for this age group. Our personal favorites were “It’s a Swing Thing” and “The Greatest Showman Medley.” Pop sensation Molly Kate Ketsner was in the house and had the singers join in the chorus of her latest pop release, “On My Way Up.” It was a long, but very exciting day for the singing Mustangs. Our fifth graders performed “Shalom” at their recognition ceremony and added ASL for the lyrics. The grade composed original songs using Google Flat and performed them in their final music classes of the year.

Art Media Elementary students spent their final weeks of class time reviewing art terms and completing projects. Each student brought home a complete portfolio of two-dimensional art projects, created during the course of the year, as well as themed booklets, sketchbooks, or folders in which students reflected on their learning. It was a productive, stimulating, and enjoyable year in the art room.

Library As the end of the year approached students participated in many special events including Book Swap, Book Tastings of next year’s Reading Olympics titles (3-5), and Media Cafe. Kindergarten students learned about, writing, and practicing reading rebus poetry. They performed their original poems at the Media Cafe! First and second graders learned about scripts and practicing reading fluency. Students selected parts and performed the play at the Media Cafe. Third graders and their families enjoyed the premiere of their research videos. Fourth and fifth graders practiced presentation skills and used a student generated rubric to provide students with feedback about their performances.

Physical Education At the end of the year, students reflected on their improvements in skill development, physical fitness, and team-building exercises. Students shared with their classmates why they value physical activity whether it be for health, enjoyment, challenge, self-expression and/or social interaction. Students participated in summer circuits learning new games and activities to play and participated in various outdoor activities to finish off the school year!

ROSE TREE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Kindergarten This month, Kindergarten has been preparing for the end of the year. We went to the Elmwood Zoo where we learned about animals and the senses that they use. We are also looking forward to an end of the year picnic that we are having. The picnic is so exciting because all of the families get to come join us celebrate the end of our Kindergarten school year.

School Reports 4 June 27, 2019 First Grade First grade is wrapping up a wonderful year!! We have enjoyed many end of year productions and festivities. Everyone is looking forward to summer!!

Second Grade Second graders at Rose Tree learned so much during a hands-on unit on the Life Cycle of a Painted Lady Butterfly. Their learning included experiencing the life cycle from the caterpillar stage through the butterfly stage. The children enjoyed taking on the role of a lepidopterist. The teachers shared fiction and nonfiction stories. Our students learned about the Painted Lady eggs, and the body part names/functions of the caterpillar, chrysalis and butterfly. After the butterflies emerged, our students cared for them until the release ceremony, at which time we shared parting words and said our farewells. The children participated in a distance learning lesson with The Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, GA which extended the content of the unit with more information about butterflies and the creation of a butterfly puppet.

Third Grade The third grade at Rose Tree Elementary spent the month of June finishing up several projects. We completed an animal research unit in reading class. We synthesized information from many different print resources. We created shared Google Slide presentations. In writing, we created our own version of classic fairy tales. Some of the titles included: The Three Little Police Officers; Goldilocks and the Three Hedgehogs; and The Three Little Avengers. We had great fun adapting these classic stories. We also participated in a Career and Education in the Workplace activity. The students created a flat version of themselves (like a Flat Stanley) and sent it to work with a parent, other relative, or friend. Their flat “me” got to experience that job for the day. The adults completed a few short answer questions about their career and took a selfie with the flat “me.” When students returned the project to school, we shared what our flat selves learned and completed a summary activity. This was a great way to explore a variety of different careers. This group of third graders has improved steadily all year. The teachers at Rose Tree are incredibly proud of our amazingly kind, hardworking, and intelligent students!

Fourth Grade As part of the Social Studies curriculum, the 4th graders at Rose Tree Elementary are learning about the regions of the . Each child is researching a state to present to their peers during a State Fair. The students had the opportunity to visit Wagner Free Science Museum in Philadelphia to extend the Earth Science curriculum. The students participated in a scavenger hunt in order to discover artifacts such as shells, rocks, taxidermy animals, skeletons, insects, and other fascinating items.

Fifth Grade Our most recent Google Drive project for the Rose Tree Elementary fifth graders correlated our studies in reading, researching, writing, and science. Our students chose zoo animals for in-depth study and research. Student choices ranged from the King Cobra to the Hippopotamus. Students found information related to the animal’s scientific name, anatomy and appearance, habitat and range, behavior, and survival status. We focused our study on the animal’s specific adaptations that have allowed the species to survive in

School Reports 5 June 27, 2019 the wild. Students created presentations on Google Slides with all the information gathered. Pictures and videos were embedded in the shows and each student presented his/her project to the class. As a culminating activity, the fifth grade visited the Philadelphia Zoo. Students toured the zoo and found the animal that each researched.

Library Students in grades K – 2 participated in library lessons regarding fiction and nonfiction. Students in grades K – 2 were able to compare and contrast fiction and non-fiction books. Students in grades 3 – 5 also demonstrated the ability to locate nonfiction titles using subject topics in the Destiny Catalog and locating those books on the library shelf.

Physical Education During the month of June, all grades participated in a variety of activities that reinforced skills learned this year. These activities promote cooperation, teamwork, and respect.

Art The year is wrapping up with a BANG! Students are creating individual projects that explore topics and materials not yet covered throughout the year. For instance, first grade created woven fireworks. Second grade are stretching their creative muscles by creating a jar filled with wishes for the summer. The third graders created Impressionistic ponds filled with 3d creatures and lily pads. After talking about Dale Chihuly, the fourth graders used lamination to create a sculpture mimicking glass. Lastly the fifth graders are creating a animal drawing that expresses a zoo animals personality. Students are encouraged to make art over the summer as a part of Rose Tree Elementary's Summer Portfolio challenge. Though the school year will end very soon the art making will continue!

Academically Gifted Program The third-grade students are currently working through the Mensa Foundations Educational Program entitled, “Duct Tape Bonanza!” This series of activities was designed to simultaneously entertain and challenge gifted youth. The fourth-grade AGP students are currently researching and evaluating USA Landmarks, local landmarks, and symbols. The fifth grade AGP students took a trip to Xscape the Room in Media. AGP students from all four elementary buildings worked on skills like team building, problem- solving, collaboration, and focus. The trip was well received by both parents, the staff, and all the students.

Music This month, the fourth and fifth grade students performed Aristocats KIDS for the Rose Tree Elementary community. The students did an excellent job singing, acting, and dancing in the show.

SPRINGTON LAKE MIDDLE SCHOOL

Art The annual Springton Lake Middle School Art Exhibit was held on the evening of Wednesday, May 29th. The exhibit was held in the cafeteria extending into the art corridor on the first floor. All sixth, seventh and eighth grade Springton Lake students had at least

School Reports 6 June 27, 2019 one work of art in the exhibit. While family members and other visitors viewed the student artwork, Mrs. Long’s orchestra students played an arrangement of music. Also, light refreshments were provided for visitors and students. A variety of art forms such as paintings, sculptures and drawings were on display. The artwork on display reflected the concepts and techniques that students learned throughout the year in their art classes. Also visible is the creativity and imagination of the students that is nurtured by the art department. The art teachers were very pleased with the many visitors that attended the art exhibit. It was a wonderful opportunity to meet the students’ families and friends surrounded by the beauty of the student artwork. The art department also appreciates the supportive attendance of Dr. Salladino, Mrs. Britton and Dr. Layton.

Guidance Springton Lake’s Career Day was a huge success. Over 55 volunteers visited the school and shared information about their professions. The students chose which Career Cluster they had an interest in and visited three different presentations during the morning. Students were overheard talking about the careers they visited during their lunch! A lucky group of eighth graders had a small group visit to Penncrest. The students received a tour, an answer and questions session and lunch with mentors from Penncrest. They are very excited to begin Penncrest in the fall. A small group of fifth- grade students came to visit Springton Lake. Ms. Howe’s Girls leadership group gave the students a tour, answered questions, and brought them to a class to observe. The goal of the small group visit was to reduce the uncertainty about the transition to middle school.

Language Arts Students in sixth grade Language Arts explored and shared the deeper meanings found within our social issues book clubs this past month. Teachers modeled the book club mini-lessons using the mentor text “Raymond’s Run” by Toni Cade Bambara, as well as The Circuit by Francisco Jimenez. Students then led independent discussions focused on a variety of elements, including power imbalance, social groups, and universal themes.

During the month of June, the seventh grade Language Arts students completed a fan fiction writing unit of study. Students borrowed the plot elements, setting, and characters of a chosen piece of work and created their own stories based on it. The students shared their creations with their peers and had the opportunity to publish their writing on popular fan fiction websites. The students also reflected on their school year and wrote letters to current or former teachers, as well as future seventh grade students.

The eighth grade Language Arts students studied William Shakespeare this month. In this unit, students received an introduction to Shakespeare’s life and legacy. We discussed the time in which Shakespeare lived, the structure of his plays, and his use of language. As students read Shakespeare’s words aloud in The Tempest, they used techniques from Reader’s Theater to bring the words off the page. Our performance was a fun, student- centered activity to end the school year!

Library With summer vacation just around the corner, the library is turning up the heat on its efforts to promote summer reading. A display of summer reading options informs students about the required titles, as well as highlighting an array of suggested reads in multiple genres. The summer reading information can be found on the library’s website as well.

School Reports 7 June 27, 2019 Students are encouraged to visit their local public library this summer to check out the fabulous books and programs that are available there while the school library is temporarily unavailable. Students and parents can check out www.delcolibraries.org for more information on public library offerings. End of school year also means inventorying and accounting for missing titles. It is quite a busy time for us as we try to get the collection in order and await the summer arrival of new books to add in the fall. Yes, we’re already looking ahead to (and preparing for) the next school year with eager anticipation!

Math Sixth grade math students wrapped up the year with a mini-unit on expressions. Students learned how to combine like terms, use the distributive property to simplify an expression, and factor algebraic expressions. The last week of school, students were engaged with various STEM projects such as computer programming and creating esti-mystery puzzles.

Seventh grade math students concluded their year by completing cumulative activities and projects. The students demonstrated their mastery of the seventh grade skills by completing a Common Core assignment that addressed the skills from the entire school year. Then, the students showed their creativity a bit by constructing and completing their Clock Project. The students enjoyed making their own equations and expressions to represent the values 1-12 that are found on the clock and then displaying these clocks in numerous creative ways. Some students even made real, working, ticking clocks! A fun way to apply the skills that we learned this year and to end the year!

In our eighth-grade math classes, we finished up the school year with an introduction unit on polynomials. Adding, subtracting, and multiplying polynomials is an important concept to have mastered as they work through Algebra I. The kids both simplified and factored polynomial expressions. They have been working with polynomials when they “moved and grouped” like terms when they solved linear equations.

Our Algebra I students finished up the month of May with the Keystone Exams. Most of the kids I spoke with felt very prepared for the tests and that both the colored packets and Keystone help-sessions were “an accurate representation of what was on the exam.” Last year, Keystone scores came out at the start of July. As we worked up to the exams, we finished our last two topics--simplifying rational expressions and operations with rational expressions. Both topics require the students to be able to apply the skills of factoring polynomials of any kind. A tough concept that the kids worked hard to master.

Our Geometry students work right up to the end—completing an introduction unit on Trigonometric Ratios. They were introduced to “Soh-Cah-Toa”— the mnemonic “person,” or device often used to remember trigonometric ratios. They will see more of trigonometric ratios in other HS math courses, where they will “solve” right triangles using trigonometric ratios and their inverses.

The Algebra II students have had a very successful year and they finished strong! They completed their final exam to show how much they learned this year. The kids will be given a summer Pre-Calculus packet to work on. They had a busy end to the year with school events but enjoyed the course and are excited to see what is next in high school!

School Reports 8 June 27, 2019 Music The Select Choir opened up the Phillies series with the Arizona Diamondbacks by performing the National Anthem. The Jazz Band delighted the community as they performed at Dining Under the Stars. Our seventh grade band and select choir ensembles sent the eighth grade class off to Penncrest with performances at the Eighth Grade Recognition ceremony.

Physical Education The last set of students completed their third and final round of lessons in the pool. All students completed skills that were in accordance to American Red Cross developmental guidelines. Students worked towards learning and refining their swimming and water safety skills. The major goal was to make all students comfortable as well as be water safe and aware in the pool or around other bodies of water.

All students completed their spring fitness tests where they looked to improve or maintain their fitness levels. All school year students were able to participate in activities that allowed them to work on their areas of fitness.

In other areas of Physical Education, students were able to complete specific post skill assessments in their particular units. The last several weeks have wrapped up the last of these assessments where students apply concepts and skills learned to their testing. Overall, it was a productive year for all students where they were exposed to a variety of different activities and concepts.

In Health classes, students completed their learning of how their bodies are affected by internal, environmental, social, mental and emotional factors. In addition, students got to learn how to make safe informed choices as well as understand the how and the why of how those choices or experiences affected their bodies.

Science In sixth grade science, students investigated endangered animals. Students read about causes of animal endangerment and conservation efforts. As a culminating activity, students chose an endangered animal to research. Students chose a format to present their information to classmates and inform them about the reasons for their animal’s status, and what conservation efforts are in place to help save their animal.

Seventh grade finished strong with applications of Newton’s Laws and Forces, working through the Physics Day Activities using data collected from the Hershey Park trip. Once that wrapped up, we explored simple machines, a little weather (how could we ignore the crazy stuff), and some random science demonstrations.

Before sending our eighth graders off to their high school careers, we culminated our weather unit with the students recording their own weather forecast. Students studied meteorologists from major networks and compared their maps to the ones seen in real broadcasts. Finally, students had time to be creative with some STEM activities and choice projects and to introduce the incoming 8th graders to their final year of middle school next year.

Social Studies

School Reports 9 June 27, 2019 Sixth grade students studied the colonization of Africa by the European powers. Students compared the current map of Africa created by the Europeans to the tribal map of Africa. Countries such as Nigeria and Rwanda were used as examples of the modern consequences resulting from the mistreatment of the African people during the colonial period. In addition, some students studied and created graphs for the Human Development Index to compare the well-being of people in African countries to those in the U.S. In addition, students studied the apartheid government in South Africa and Mandela’s leadership in the struggle against racist policies. The students finished the year by the reading the novel, A Long Walk to Water, which tells the story of the Lost Boys of Sudan intertwined with the modern story of poverty and hope in South Sudan.

Seventh grade students have studied the causes, effects, and major battles of the American Civil War. Students participated in debates in which they presented arguments for what they felt was the main cause of this bloody conflict. They also read and analyzed primary sources from the time period. A highlight of the unit was when a Civil War reenactor visited and shared information about camp life and training as a soldier. Students were able to ask questions and interact with the artifacts that were displayed. Students finished the year researching various topics about life during this time and creating a presentation to share with the class.

Eighth grade students investigated the growth of civil rights in the United States. Students recognized how the Abolitionist Movement also led to an increased interest by women in gaining more civil rights. Students acted in a play about the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 and identified areas where women needed more legal rights, including the right to vote. Students then further examined the rights of women in the 18th and 19th centuries and the growth of these rights in the 20th century which included more women receiving a college education and women’s suffrage.

Special Education During the month of June, Mrs. Licata's sixth grade content math class participated in a unit on division (equal groups in division, strategies for division, and partial quotient strategies). Students practiced computation strategies and problem solving strategies through the Math 180 curriculum. Mrs. Licata prepared a review packet for students to study for the unit exam. In class, the students played a jeopardy review game. Finally, students were administered the mSkills assessment for the unit.

World Language Last month Springton Lake’s Sixth Grade French students prepared menus and presented a skit at the cafe and watched the movie Ratatouille. Spanish students learned how to express what they like and do not like to do; they made presentations on Adobe Spark to share with the class.

Seventh grade Spanish students ended their chapter on dinner food choices and maintaining a healthy lifestyle and discussed how the Amazon Rainforest is a great source of natural remedies. They then moved on to begin expressing what they like to do in their free time. Seventh grade French students learned to talk about the weather and prepared and presented a weather forecast for a city in France.

School Reports 10 June 27, 2019 Eighth grade Spanish students started their chapter on clothing and shopping. Students learned about Molas, a handicraft originating from the Islands of San Blas of Panama, and made their own paper versions of them. Eighth grade French students presented their virtual trip to a French-speaking country or place to their classes; some of them shared food from their destinations such pancakes and syrup from Quebec or Mickey Mouse shaped cookies from Disneyland, Paris. The project required concepts learned through the whole year which allowed us to transition to the end of the year review sessions to prepare for the final exam.
