Davis and Thomas led our E.G.G.O. My Lego Team to win second place in the qualifying tournament! They are on their way to the Alabama State Championship in Huntsville, AL December 16th and 17th! Congratulations!
We have started reading The Hobbit. We will not finish before the holidays, but students do not have to read over the break. They can if they wish, plus it is available on audio if students wish to read along as they listen to it.
Our next step to restore our wetlands is to work with two Auburn experts. Such real-life problem solving skills are some of the many attributes that we hope you are developing as life long learners.
We look forward to seeing each of you at the Holiday Program on Tuesday night, December 13th, and on the 15th from 2:45 to 3:15 to discuss the Middle School Extended Classroom Trip to the Nothwest.
Exams are as follows:

The Lego Robotic Qualifiying Tournament will be at JSB December 3rd! All middle school students are invited to earn some money for our trips by joining us in working at the event. The doors open at 7:30 and we will conclude by 3:30. The money made from selling food will be divided among the students who work, based on their time.
We want to congratulate Davis and Thomas for demonstrating how their robot works when their team was featured on the ABC 33/40 news. We hope all your programs work on the 3rd as the top teams from the JSB tournament will go to the State Lego Robotics Championship in Huntsville!
Our research concerning how to improve the health of our wetlands has been very exciting as two soil erosion specialists joined us for a day to survey the area. We discovered the best steps for us to take are to research ways to bring wildlife back such as planting specific plants, supplying bird and bat homes, etc. It is exciting to think of how we can make such a difference to our school.
We learned a lot about the Middle Ages through our study of Crispin. Now research teams are preparing plays to teach their peers the most important aspects of their areas of interest. These plays will be Tuesday, December 6th, so stay tuned for at least one video to be posted to our blog.
We hope the holiday season is a blessed one for you and your family!
