5th Grade Cereal Box Book Report

LOWER SCHOOL NEWS
Monday, January 12, 2004


5th Grade Student Mike Devon gets help on his book report from Captain Butterfield

5th Grade students recently completed a fun, unique way of doing book reports.

Students selected a fiction book to read and produced a cereal box to describe their choice. The front of the box was a “ book cover,” the back featured a student produced game to play, a toy invention was placed inside and the sides of the box gave details of the nutrients (lessons learned from the book) and the ingredients (plot, setting, characters) of the story. Each student then wrote and performed a “commercial” about their book.

 

Looking Ahead…

Preparations are underway in the Lower School for the 2004-2005 school year! Current SFCS families will receive re-enrollment information on Monday, January 26, via communication folders. Parents should plan to attend upcoming grade level meetings. Each meeting will include information about the academic program, extra-curricular opportunities, field trips and other news of the advantages of being a SFCS student in that new grade level. Faculty and Administration will also be present to answer your questions.
