Happy October

We begin this month with a welcome back breakfast for our HS gifted students.  Enrichment students in 9-12 can feel free to stop by the HS Library on the 2nd for a continental breakfast.  Information and sign up sheets for the 2013-2014 independent study will be available. 

October is Shakespeare Month! In a few weeks our high school juniors and enrichment students will have the opportunity to see  the Merchant of Venice at BTE. At the end of the month, the  8-12 Enrichment and Honors English students will have a rare opportunity to see a live performance of Shakespeare’s play, Macbeth.  The Linny Fowler WillPower Tour is performing this production.  Now in its 14th year, WillPower has served more than 110,000 students and has a well-established reputation for excellence.  This will be a professionally directed 80-minute production of Macbeth with sets and costumes and include a post-show discussion with the cast after the performance.   (Permission slips will be available outside of HS Gifted room 108).

The next few weeks....

Our K-6th grade students will be partaking in a Rube Goldberg project. Students are busy building and recording their structures. Look for more information on this in a future post.

Our 7th through 8th grade students are finishing a creative writing piece for me. Their next project will be a folklore unit, researching tales and myths of Pennsylvania for an October Journal they will be producing.  

Students will also be dabbling 
in graphic arts for this upcoming project. 

We have a lot of fun and enriching activities to look forward to this upcoming Fall! Please feel free to email me any questions.

Remember to work hard, do your best, and think big...

Take Care,
Mrs. Kozlek
