An Overview of Pre-K Unit 1: Family
Pre-K learning this month explores our students’ families, and how family members relate to and help one another. Through our learning, we will explore how families work together to solve problems, conflicts and dilemmas, and learn about the many roles and responsibilities within a family unit. We are also working to establish foundational skills around letters and the sounds they make. We are experiencing the different perspectives of our classmates and how to solve problems within our classroom community.
A few of the books we have focused on this past month:
Crybaby by Eugene Yelcum
Peter’s Chair by Ezra Jack Keets
Sometimes I’m Bombaloo by Rachel Vail
Corduroy by Don Freeman
-Ms. Sawyer

Last Thursday, our eighth graders went on a kayaking tour with Maine Kayak. They learned basic paddling strokes and proper boat form before they paddled along the Johns Bay shoreline. They spotted ospreys and osprey nests, terns, an eagle, and a seal. In addition to wildlife, there were lots of laughs and memories made. We would like to give a big shoutout to Maine Kayak for hosting us and to the Maine Island Trail Association for generously contributing grant funding to help our efforts to get students out on the water. What a way to kick off their eighth grade year! -Ms. Winchenbach & Mr. Flowers

An exciting opportunity we have this year concerns the building of a boat in collaboration with the Carpenter's Boat Shop and the Old Bristol Historical Society in Bristol. Partly to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the Continental Army's expedition to Quebec through Maine, students will be traveling to the Carpenter's Boat Shop weekly to help build a bateau, a colonial era boat that was used as a transport vessel. A kickoff speech by Rob Stevens, the master carpenter, will be given at the school sometime in late September (details TBA), after which construction will begin. This past Wednesday, Rob brought a finished bateau to the school for the students to inspect.
Check out this great opportunity to try hockey!
