6th Grade SUCCESS---AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM
We are extremely lucky to have an after-school program called SUCCESS!!! Mrs. Larson will be holding SUCCESS every Wednesday (excluding Yellow and Red days) each week from 3:10-4:00 pm in Room 607. Students may use this opportunity to complete homework, take/retake tests, catch up on missed assignments or simply receive extra help in any subject!!! Please encourage your student to take advantage of this great program and be a Successful 6th Grader!!!

SOCIAL STUDIES:
This week in Social Studies, we will begin a new unit on the Explorers! We will learn about different British, French, and Spanish explorers. On Monday and Tuesday, we will be learning the vocabulary words for this unit, as well as taking notes on specific explorers. On Wednesday and Thursday, we will begin our Explorer Journals by creating an Explorer Table. If you have any questions, please email me: mrongen@kimberly.edu.

STEM:
STEM students are working full steam on an Astronomy project! Your student chose the topic to study and the format of the final product to be presented to their classmates. They have several or many questions to research to help guide their learning. Most of the project should be worked on at school, but they may also work on especially messy parts, (like making clay models) at home. The due date is March 3 and 4 at which time presentations will begin. Feel free to email me at hchild@kimberly.edu with any questions!
