Fifth grade science students won the Penny War competition! They enjoyed a pizza dance party as their reward for their efforts. I hope fun was had by all!! So thankful to have a first and last day of school in person this year!!
Seventh grade science students finished the year by completing their ecosystem diorama. They did a great job! In addition, the tadpoles that were developing in our classroom as part of our adaptation unit got sent home today. They may be released into a pond or stream near you! Have a fabulous summer Ram family!
The 8th grade class got the opportunity to tour East Kansas Agri-Energy, an ethanol plant in Garnett, KS, on Friday, May 21. Students had completed their own fermentation lab experiments in class prior to this visit. The students asked great questions and learned a lot about what it takes to turn corn into a viable fuel source. These kids got promoted on to high school today. They will be missed at the middle school! Congratulations to all of them!!!

My apparel production class loved the 8th grade felt monsters. They did a couple of them and couldn’t stop sewing until they were finished. I missed one monster. They did a great job!
These group of 8th grades finished up their felt monsters where they did different hand sewing techniques. Great project. They did have to finish on their own time. Next I will post the rest of the class.
In family studies as their last big project they are planning their future wedding. A lot of discussion what is a usher, ring bearer, and engagement announcements. Why so many flowers, etc? Lots of discussions which is awesome.
