In rooms 303 and 301 at Cecil Intermediate School students completed a Mayan calendar STEM project. Students created their own language to predict something about their future. @CISCMSD@canon_mac@DrTaranto@Abbondanza34
Students from 301 and 303 practiced sensory writing by observing the area around them. This activity helped them use sensory details in their future assignments. @CISCMSD@canon_mac@DrTaranto@Abbondanza34
Once more, students needed to present information to the sheriff. Officer Falconer let the kids know they have enough evidence to question the suspects! @DrTaranto@CISCMSD@canon_mac
Students in room 202 and 204 are tracking down a missing fossil in their new ELA unit. Our own Officer Falconer came in to review the student’s mock police reports. At this point, students have to keep looking for evidence! @CISCMSD@DrTaranto@canon_mac
Students enjoyed an end of the unit brain dump! I love seeing how much they all enjoy doing this activity. Each student filled their entire page with what they learned during Unit 7: Midsummer Night’s Dream. @Amplify@DrTaranto@CISCMSD@canon_mac
202 and 204 played the tossing lines game to understand some of Shakespeare’s complex language. In the first picture you can read some of the lines they were assigned. @CISCMSD@canon_mac@DrTaranto
I’m so proud of these kids for getting out of their comfort zone to act in front of their peers. Each student was given a script to act out for the class in line with their unit about Shakespeare. As you can see, they had lots of fun! @CISCMSD@DrTaranto@canon_mac
Students in room 202 and 204 put themselves in the famous shoes of Michelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel Ceiling. However, they only had to draw a horse and a bird. @DrTaranto@canon_mac@CISCMSD
In rooms 202 and 204, students are learning about the famous Mona Lisa painting. Each student made their own Modern Mona Lisa. Their project had to include elements of the 21st century! @canon_mac@CISCMSD@DrTaranto
Starting the new year off with reviewing the Middle Ages to prepare for the Renaissance! Students enjoyed going on a museum picture walk. @DrTaranto@canon_mac@CISCMSD
5th Grade Cecil Intermediate students made a grand total of 177 Veterans Day cards for the Pittsburgh VA Medical Center! Thank you for your service veterans! We appreciate your great sacrifice for our country🇺🇸@CISCMSD@DrTaranto@canon_mac
