These were just some of the activities students participated in recently to celebrate Fall, build school community and integrate art and literacy. Students worked in multi-age groups all day on Friday. They rotated to five different activities that used picture books to introduce Fall themed activities that they then worked on collaboratively with students from all grade levels. Activities included listening to the story Pumpkin Soup and working as a group to then make soup and cooking applesauce. Students also read The Lonely Scarecrow and worked cooperatively to make scarecrows to be displayed at the school, and carved the words Black Bears into pumpkins generously donated by Tenney Farm. To integrate the school’s core values the children created a kindness tree. Each leaf demonstrates an example of kindness the student has shown or has experienced. Look for the kindness tree displayed in the school for all to see. This was just the first opportunity students had this year to work in our multi-age groups, called Black Bear groups. Throughout the school year, students will work in these groups on different projects, the goal of which is to allow students to make connections with children and teachers in different classes, work collaboratively, give older students the opportunity to mentor younger students, and to continue to build a strong school community. Our next opportunity to work in these groups will occur when we visit the Barbara C. Harris Center in December. Students will have the chance to make pizza, decorate cookies and explore the natural world through a winter scavenger hunt and hike. We thank all of the volunteers, community members, and our PTO for their help and support with our Black Bear groups! - by Jen Sutton [post_title] => Black Bear Day [post_excerpt] => [post_status] => publish [comment_status] => closed [ping_status] => open [post_password] => [post_name] => black-bear-day [to_ping] => [pinged] => [post_modified] => 2017-11-02 14:19:18 [post_modified_gmt] => 2017-11-02 18:19:18 [post_content_filtered] => [post_parent] => 0 [guid] => http://bes.convalsd.net/?p=674 [menu_order] => 0 [post_type] => post [post_mime_type] => [comment_count] => 0 [filter] => raw ) ) [post_count] => 2 [current_post] => -1 [in_the_loop] => [post] => WP_Post Object ( [ID] => 693 [post_author] => 290 [post_date] => 2017-11-02 14:38:54 [post_date_gmt] => 2017-11-02 18:38:54 [post_content] => Please join us on November 8th at 4pm for the School-wide Title 1 Annual meeting.
