During the North Scituate Holiday Shop, fifth graders assisted Kindergarten friends with their holiday shopping. Our fifth graders helped younger students select items and stick to their budget. We saw great leadership skills from our 5th grade students, and tons of smiles from fifth-grade, and kindergarteners alike!
North Scituate students in grade 4 have been studying volcano patterns, as well as volcano characteristics. The first week students worked in groups to map out all of the active volcanoes across the world. In the second week, they completed an experiment to see the different types of lava that come from different volcanoes!
Congratulations to Norah Clarke, Haley Nickerson, Amy Glass, Carson Rinaldi, Santino Sentra, Jolene Cole, Matthew Buxton, Matthew Suk, and Vincent Frenier on being nominated for a “Student Spartan Award.”
Students are recognized by teachers and staff for their involvement with something positive for the school culture and community. Students will also be entered into a raffle for a Cold Brook Cafe gift certificate. Thank you to Mrs. Segar for arranging this gift certificate and Cold Brook Cafe for your generosity. Keep up the amazing work and continue to be outstanding Scituate Spartans in and out of the classroom!
Hope Elementary second graders participated in a Mystery Science Material Magic unit in December! Students examined how large structures like houses are built from smaller pieces. In the activity, students worked together to design structures using an unconventional building material: paper! Students built towers, using 3 x 5“ index cards and paper clips. First, they built tall towers, then challenged themselves to build towers, strong enough to support a hardcover book.
North Scituate Kindergarten students in Mrs. Slaughter's class completed a unit on measuring length in December. They went on a classroom hunt to find objects longer than, or shorter than, their red string!
