Miniterm has started and there is a feel of refreshment and energy in the air! If you were to take a walk through the middle school on a morning this month you would find a variety of unique classes taking place. Some activities that are taking place on a regular basis include; weight training, baking from "scratch", collage creation, paisley printing, capoeira, india studies and bollywood films.
All of these classes have one common theme. >How do we, in our society today, work to find a balance between structure and freedom? How can we work on living in a healthy and balanced way? Students will be exploring these thoughts through a variety of activities and discussion.
The sixth graders are thoroughly enjoying this new schedule and change of pace. In the afternoon, we are focusing on writing biographies and reading 'A Christmas Carol' by Charles Dickens.
Stay tuned for pictures of these miniterm classes!
