Another fantastic week!
3rd-5th grade participated in the
Bebras Critical Thinking Challenge during STEAM Lab, but K-2nd were
hard at work building, problem solving in Code.org, and storytelling with
BeeBots and OZOBOTS!
Friday was our annual Mini Reading Fair and the student work
on display was fantastic!
In 1st grade Ms. Leal and Ms. Thormodsgaard’s
classrooms transformed into puppet theater and they staged works inspired by
students’ Name That Book favorites! Ms. Thormodsgaard’s class performed a
version of Frank, the Seven-Legged Spider and Ms. Leal’s students presented The
Princess and the Pea.
2nd grade presented Aesop TV. Students worked
collaboratively to retell favorite fables orally and visually with their
recycled material “TV” sets!
In 3rd grade Ms. Mallona and Mr. Briceno’s group
presented their Water World play to acclaim and Ms. Massey hosted a poetry café
– visitors were treated to performances of verse favorites by several of Piney
Point’s top UIL contenders!
4th grade did readings from their digital anthology
“The Great Escape”. Visitors were thrilled to have a personal presentation from
the author of each story!
5th grade presented their book commercials and “sold”
favorite titles to their audience members!
As if this weren’t enough for one week, our UIL team
competed at the HISD Elementary UIL Invitational Meet 2 at Welch Middle School
on Saturday and brought home a load of medals for their outstanding performances!
Great Job, Panthers!
