September 21st - Last Day of Summer

I can't believe it is already the last day of summer for 2016. In this short amount of time this school year, we have done so many things and this is still the beginning of 6th grade and the Middle School Years.

I am sure that you are going to have some fantastic conversations around the dinner table tonight. We just got back from a long day of learning. Once we arrived at the Rock of Ages Granite Quarry in Barre, VT students were given a fantastic view from the top of the quarry looking down. (The the view from the top was beautiful. We could easily see Camel's hump with the blue skies.



                                                   Johon, our guide giving us some amazing information

We are working so hard.                                    Peter is so excited!

                                                           On top of the world!

In addition to Rock of Ages, we also stopped at Ziemke Glass Blowing Studio.  Glenn does an amazing job not only with the glass, but also explaining how the minerals we are learning about in Science class is used to create his beautiful artwork.



Tuesday September 20th - Open House

Thank you all for coming out Tuesday. It was so nice to get to meet you and welcome you to 6th grade and Stowe Middle School. I hope you found the evening helpful. If there is anything that we can help you with, please contact your child's TA teacher and we can set up a time to sit down with you and help make the transition run smoother.  Sadly, we didn't get to talk with all of you, but our doors and emails are always open... please let us know how we can help.


The next Math Magazine should be coming out shortly. If you need any help, please check Google Classroom for videos, or send me an email and I will help in any ways that I can.

Until Next time
