On Wednesday, a group of 6th graders traveled to meet with their 1st grade friends from Amberly! These scholars will be developing original science books together throughout the 3rd Quarter. The project will culminate with the 6th graders meeting with their 1st grade friends and showing them the final product at the end of the quarter.
This project is 1 of 4 literacy projects 6th graders will participate in throughout the year.
Can't wait to see what each partnership develops this quarter!
