Ooh La La!

Our first round of Academies began today!  Many thanks to Marie Field for sharing her time and talents with some of our 3rd graders.  The focus of the first 3rd grade academy is learning French.  The kids had a terrific time!  (I am basing this on the big smiles throughout and the audible groans emitted when I said it was time to leave :-)  They learned colors, numbers, food names, body parts, sang songs, and more!

Students were selected to participate in the Academy based on an interest inventory completed at the beginning of the year and classroom data demonstrating a need for enrichment.  4th and 5th grade Academies will begin in October.  4th grade's focus will be leadership and 5th will be doing video game design.  Visit my web page to learn more about Academies at Bradley Creek.
