A big thank you to Meteorologist Janna Brown, from Western Mass News, who came to explain everything weather related to Ms. Green's fifth grade students. While she was there, we asked her to broadcast the 7-day weather using OUR Green Screen Studio. It was exciting to watch her "live" at our school! To watch Janna's entire presentation, please click HERE. Thank you!
The third grade teachers led an amazing collaborative project with their students that included parents and technology integration. Students read biographies of their choice, completed information about their selected person, created a Google slideshow, and presented to family and friends! Impressive third graders!! Kudos to Mrs. Craft, Mrs. Iancu and Mrs. Bombardier for their hard work on this special project!
Thank you Nilani for filming Mrs. Iancu's class!
Thank you Alexa for filming Mrs. Craft's class!

Students were challenged to make a middle school caliber presentation on the Branches of Government. They researched, took notes, and designed their Google slideshows. Finally, they demonstrated their knowledge by presenting to their class.
Note from Ms. Vigna and Ms. Fritz, leaders of Our Reading Ambassadors: Last week, CSS visited the Reading Ambassadors, a group of third to fifth graders who meet before school every two weeks to plan and execute literacy events for students at Center School. As the initial year wraps up, the different committees are working on a variety of events. Before break, the Spirit Day committee hosted "dress up like a favorite book character" day and are now writing reviews for books at this week's Book Fair. The Reading Republic committee is drafting articles and games for their literacy-themed school newspaper, and the Book Cover Door committee is getting ready to "bookmark" another classroom door. Another group, the Summer Reading Assembly committee, has been busy nominating books and writing introductions for our red carpet-themed summer reading assembly in June. The Reading Ambassadors had so many ideas for literacy events that these are just some of the committees. Every other Thursday morning is a busy, fun-filled literacy launch to our school day!
