Tallyrand Park and Mike's House Trip

Check out our group Egyptian Pyramid building challenge, using the material given. 

This Friday is our last fall field-trip. We are going to the Nittany Mall to "hike" and to exercise at the senior center. Bring a packed lunch that does not require heating. 

Today we will sign-up for winter enrichments!

TOMORROW (yes, tomorrow instead of Friday due to the weather) we will go to Tallyrand Park and then to Mike's house to have lunch.
Ms. Ivy has donated hot dogs for us to roast, but you will still need to pack some lunch and bring a refillable water bottle. :)
Friday will be like a Thursday class schedule.

Wheels Day was a blast and the students all remembered about brain safety, and used helmets while riding!

Egyptians?

On Monday, the students in Shannon, Verna, and Brandy's classes will attend the school-time matinee at Eisenhower Auditorium: "Diary of a Worm, a Spider, and a  Fly"

NVCS got to meet the State College Mayor!

Our students had really great questions to ask him about his work as a public official.

Brandy's class is studying Egypt, but they didn't know how to "Walk like an Egyptian"!

Grades 3 and up went camping!

Then, grades K -2 joined in on the fun.

This Thursday, Matt and Joyce's class will be doing some community service and participating in the 25th year of Centre County's United Way Day of Caring. :)

In Spanish class, they are learning about the senses: 

This Friday, we will be touring local grocery stores. We will shop, in groups, for the ingredients for recipes that we will be making back at school. We will then go to a park for lunch and recess. Remember a refillable water bottle and non-microwaveable lunch. Please dress in layers, the forecast says cloudy and 68 degrees. 

*An early reminder that we will have no school on October 17, 18, and 19th for a Fall Break. 

The older students had a very interesting trip to Meadowcroft where they learned about history, anthropology, and archaeology!

The rest of us had a great time exploring and helping at Carolyn's Farm. Bug catching galore!

Tomorrow, grades 3 and up go camping and K-2 will join them on Friday! We will be hiking; we recommend boots. Don't forget a refillable water bottle and a non-microwave lunch. With all of the rain we have had, it is buggy out there. Bug protection is a good idea. :)
