Science and Social Studies
In science, students will participate in weekly STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) activities each Friday. We are fortunate enough to be using McKinley's new Makerspace area that is setup specifically for STEM challenges. Thank you so much to all of the parents that have donated weekly items. Students just completed the unit discussing the components of soil. We are now moving into how rocks can be classified.
In social studies, we are learning about the history of Lisbon. Students are researching Lisbon's past and will be making a Google Slide presentation of the information that they have found. We will also be taking a walking trip around Lisbon with a tour guide that will be sharing with us historical facts about Lisbon. We will be taking our trip around Lisbon November 8th in the afternoon. Keep an eye out for the permission slip.
