The Riley Farm Rescue
6th gr students went on a live virtual field trip to The Riley Farm Rescue, in CT. Our tour guide, Ms. Drew, led us on a tour of the farm showing & teaching us about the rescued animals & the importance of the farm. Ms. Drew is also a kdg teacher. Our one hour tour included a visit to the various barns where rescued animals are cared for as they heal and thrive in a safe and loving environment.
The students asked high-level questions about the farm, various animal species, and the employees/volunteers. I'm also very proud of the excellent behavior of each and every student. If you have ever participated in a video conference with two dozen people, you know how tricky it can be for everyone. Ms. Drew was very impressed by the quality of questions and how respectful the 6th grade students were during the virtual field trip. Ms. Drew said, "It was my pleasure! I'm so glad everyone enjoyed the virtual field trip. Your students had such wonderful questions and I'm so glad they were engaged. I had such a nice time speaking to you and your class and sharing our animals with you!" To my students---You made your families, teacher, and school proud. I'm blessed beyond words to work in a school with such wonderful families and students.

Virtual Field Trip to Italy
Come join 6th grade and escape to the beautiful sights of Italy. Students went on a virtual field trip and chose a place they think is a must see place. Then students used their writing skills to write a claim, evidence, and reason (CER), which are the key writing skills needed for argumentative writing. So it back, relax, and enjoy the amazing artwork of these very talented students.
