Wednesday December 23rd- Sixth Grade Fun Day
On this day in order to celebrate the Winter break, the 6th graders are watching a Christmas movie and they are creating Gingerbread houses. The Gingerbread houses will mainly be comprised of food brought in by the students. The staff didn't inform the students what the movie will be, but it should still be fun. The students will use milk cartons from the cafeteria to build the Gingerbread house base and graham crackers. The students will be decorating the Gingerbread houses with different kinds of candy and frosting. The students thank the sixth grade teachers for allowing us to celebrate the holidays in school.
Update: Here are some pictures of students creating their Gingerbread houses.

Finally, the 8th grade chorus, which was also directed by Ms. Kelly Shackleton, performed. This final performance closed out the night. It was a great concert.
We interviewed Ms. Vanriper and how she made a billboard about her class and how they act like GEMS . She told us about how they behaved, and how they started out rough at the beginning of the year and how they were getting better and better. She told us about how they help each other out with writing essays and how they show compassion to each other. Ms Vanriper is a great teacher and has been teaching for 10 years.
