Science
Week Is Returning!
April
12 -16, 2010
The
St. Agatha School is proud to announce the Second Annual,
ALL-School, Science Week which will be held April 12th
through 16th. Like last year, the focus of this program
is to showcase “Science and Learning at St. Agatha’s”
for all grades throughout the entire school. During this
special week, St Agatha’s will come alive with science,
highlighting many cross-curricular activities and lessons
all grounded in the study of science and technology.
In
keeping with the school’s emphasis on relevant learning,
the primary feature of the week’s activities will
be curriculum projects and/or curriculum related projects.
All of these will be based upon the Massachusetts State
Frameworks and the Archdiocesan guidelines.
As
always, the St. Agatha School wants to share this learning
experience with the parents and public. Tentative plans
call for parent/public viewing by specific grade levels
during the school day on Tuesday (4/13), Wednesday (4/14)
and Thursday (4/15). A special evening presentation is
also being planned for Thursday (4/15).
Although
there will be no sweepstakes judging (1st, 2nd, etc.),
awards will be presented for “Excellence”
in a number of categories. In addition to the project
work and the in class activities, all students will be
immersed in related activities including daily Science
Trivia, Science Words in daily conversation, mini-map
drawings for the Science Museums in display classroom,
and much, much more. There is also the possibility that
students may be able to enter their project for consideration
for the Archbishop Williams middle school science fair
that is planned for late April.
Mark
the dates on your calendar and join the St. Agatha School
for “Science Week 2010” on April 12th through
16th.
