Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing
The 4th grade class had their official premiere of their movie "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing." Students read the book as their summer reading novel. They began the project by writing a summary of each chapter. Then, they turned the summaries into scripts to prepare for the movie filming. Students completed the movie independently by acting as the directors, actors/actresses, prop managers, and videographers.

Spanish Club Field Trip: University of Evansville
On Thursday, October 26th, Middle School Spanish Club students will have the opportunity to participate in an "after school" community engagement activity at the University of Evansville's diversity house. Spanish Club students have been invited the UE's Dia de los Muertos event, where they will decorate the diversity house with "papel picado" sugar skulls and will help make an "Altar." This off campus activity will be a wonderful opportunity for students to learn about the Hispanic Day of the Dead tradition, as well as to practice their Spanish skills by speaking with college students and teachers in Spanish.
