Winds of Time Continues (May 2-May 25)
We are learning more and more about ancient Rome. This week we've made connections to the Romans form of government and ours. We have also discussed famous Romans and compared our schools to that of the Romans. Next week we will focus more on Roman fun! We will start creating our chariots in preparation for race day.
May 24th @ 10am Chariot Races on the field
Each homeroom will have 8 teams of 3. The race will have 8 heats featuring the color team from each class and then a winners heat. Teams consist of a “puller”, “pusher” and “rider.” It's an exciting day. Please make time to come and join us at the races!
May 25th @ 9:30am Winds of Time Program and Parade
The culmination of our learning and fun is the Winds of Time
parade held on Friday, May 25th at 9:30a.m. You will want to make sure you get here and
get a good seat. We will provide
students with Roman garb. They will
either be dressed as a Roman Senator, Roman Soldier, or Roman Goddess. Students process to the hard top for our school wide assembly. Each grade level will present
speakers. The
ceremony closes with a song sung by the entire school. Then, we parade around the hallways of the
school and back to our classroom. It’s a
great KODAK moment!
