The students are continuing to working
on public speaking skills. Our interview
with Superintendent Dr. Robert Ackell will take place on Tuesday, February
28th. The students are still studying
interview techniques and researching the superintendent position and a brief
biography from Dr. Ackell. They are
working on questions and follow-ups for the interview.
The planning for the field trip to the
high school to observe some higher level classes is almost complete. The date is March 1, 2017. Students will be bringing home permission
slips next week.
The elementary gifted support students
will be sending a team to the K’Nex challenge at Intermediate Unit 29 in
Pottsville on March 23. All the students
will be helping with the challenge with a team of 4 attending the
competition. The challenge is to create
a ride using K’Nex for an environmentally friendly new amusement park.
The planning for our trip to the
Intermediate Unit’s new Maker Space is also nearly complete. This is a new area at the IU that offers
resources to further explore topics like Art & Music, Coding & Robotics,
Electricity, Science, and Mathematics & English Language Arts. We will be visiting later in March. More details will be given soon.
