6th Grade W.E.B. -
This month's 6th grade WEB lesson was called Brain Stress. Students were given time to identify different things that caused them stress in their lives and then wrote them down on different balloons. Students then played a game called Balloon Bash and talked about ways to deal with, handle or avoid stressors in their lives. The message that we were given was that sometimes we get a lot of balloons in the air and the stress from all of them builds up. But if we are able to handle one stressor at a time CONSISTENTLY, we can avoid stress and stay healthy.

The 7th grade participated in an activity called "In A Pickle." Students will explore choices and consequences and play the game, "In A Pickle" to reflect on many different choices we have in life. After that, students will make their own paper "Fortune Teller" which will focus on responsibility, good choices, problem solving and healthy habits.

The 8th grade class watched a video about decision making the played a Jeopardy game. The 8th graders learned that developing consistency in making good decisions is an incredibly important life skill. Good decision making is actually a habit that can be developed over time. The choices we make can affect our health, our safety, our relationships with family, friends and others, how we spend our time and our overall well-being.
This year's musical was a huge success! One of our 8th graders, Samantha Schilling knocked it out of the park in her lead role as Charlie Bucket. Charlie Bucket was one of the main characters in this musical. Charlie was an imaginative child with a knack for making something out of nothing. Charlie had big dreams of winning the golden ticket and Samantha brought this character and their dream to life on the stage.
The middle school had 35 students who performed in this fantastic musical this year! We are so proud of our DMS students and the talent they showcased in this year's musical rendition of Charlie & The Chocolate Factory!
