Springmill STEM Family Newsletter

Hello STEM Families!

Well we survived the cold. By Friday, the kids (and teachers) needed some fresh air, so we sent them outside for recess for a short time. Most of the kids loved it! But several were underdressed - students with Crocs complained that their feet are cold. We will go outside if at all possible, the kids need fresh air and to move around. If they want to wear Crocs, make sure they bring a pair with them that they can wear outside.

Students are working hard leading up to the break. By then, students should have mastered half of their grade level skills - you will be able to see this on their report card in January. If students don't master their grade level skills, and they go on to the next grade, they will be starting behind. We are really focused on making sure ALL students reach mastery.

Don't forget, we have a 2 hour delay tomorrow, 12/9! Have a great weekend.

Last day of 2nd Quarter

Mrs. Cramer's class has been learning about the properties of soil and rocks. They have learned about types of soil, layers of soil, and how rocks and soil change.

6th Grade planned everything about their thanksgiving dinner - including the menu and the cost. When they ran into some logistic issues, they learned how to tackle the problem and be flexible and creative to solve it.
