Mt. Everett Student Council is holding a Raffle Giveaway for one of “Hero Artist” Rob Surret’s paintings. Tickets are only $1.00 and will be sold to students during lunch periods.
Be sure to stop by the Mount Everett library to experience Ms. Raszl's new display of interactive portraits. An art and storytelling project by Amplifier.org gives new life to the traditional display case.
11th graders in Mrs. Barros' class presented a lesson on Thomas Paine - an American author of Common Sense. They used a model of the Boston Massacre and the Tea Party revolt as his justification for pushing the colonists to fight for independence! Tea and crumpets accompanied this lesson!
2nd grade "warm and fuzzy jar" is one of the many social and emotional supports that Ms. Jenn uses in her classroom. Students who have been spotted displaying random acts of kindness are encouraged to grab a handful of fuzzies and place them in the class jar. Once the jar is filled, the class is able to vote on a reward.
It's great to see that second grade jar almost full!
Ms. Jenn DeAngelo's second graders take a well-deserved GoNoodle movement break following their hard work during morning studies.
