Check out these pictures of our 7th graders glazing their creative coil pots! Both 6th and 7th graders take on this amazing project, showcasing their creativity and craftsmanship.
🖌️ Students used test tiles to plan their colors and are now carefully glazing each coil. Once finished, the pots will go back into the kiln for a final firing, where their beautiful designs will come to life!
Amazing work, artists! We can’t wait to see the finished pieces! 💙🧡

🎶 5th Grade Music Project: "Count On Me" by Bruno Mars 🎶
Our 5th-grade classes have been hard at work creating their own version of "Count on Me" by Bruno Mars! Over the course of 6 music classes, students rotated through various stations, each focusing on different aspects of the song. After 5 classes, they filled out a slip to choose which two stations they felt they excelled at.
With everyone's preferences in mind, Mr. Crabb assigned each student to a specific station, and together, we recorded our very own class version of this uplifting song! 🎤🎸
This collaborative project has been a great way for students to explore different aspects of music, from rhythm to vocals to instruments, and we’re so proud of the final result.
