The Pitcher Plants wrapped up the year with a series of fun and collaborative activities. The social studies unit on Native Americans of New York State concluded with field trips to the American Museum of Natural History and Museum of the City of New York. Here students were able to view artifacts that they had learned about during their research on the Iroquois Society. Following this trip, the Pitcher Plants completed their research papers and designed dioramas. Lastly, they presented their work to other classes and teachers. The alumni dance was a great success with many alumni returning to participate in the panel and join in the festivities celebrating the graduating class. Linda’s room hosted the dance party, Sam’s room hosted the delicious food, and Michelle’s room hosted games. Lot’s of fun was had by all! This was followed by the achievement ceremony, where everyone was recognized for their accomplishments during the year. On the Wednesday before the last day of school, students completed a new Time Capsule questionnaire. On the last day, they opened up the Time Capsule they had completed back in September and compared the findings! Some things had stayed the same….but much had changed!
