ONCE A POND A TIME...
WE DECIDED IT WOULD BE NICE TO ADD A WATER HABITAT TO OUR GARDEN. WE KNEW WE HAD TO DO A LOT OF RESEARCH TO KNOW HOW TO BUILD THE POND AND TO LEARN ABOUT THE ANIMALS THAT WOULD COME TO LIVE THERE. WE ALSO KNEW WE WOULD NEED HELP WITH THE "HARD TO DO STUFF".Recipe For A Pond
By
Hannah T.
Then,
you’ll need 5 cups of critters.
Stir
in 6 cups of nature.
Add planning, water, flowers, a ton of learning and a whole lot of fun!
We did it!!!
We read and researched about pond life, invited guest speakers, and we dug and
dug and dug until . . . we now have a pond and a waterfall! Thanks to the many
children, parents and friends who helped finish off the rock and have added
plants and fish to the pond. Our new pond friends are Goldie, Sparkles, Sparkle
Jr. and Al the algae eater!
We love our pond!!!!
BUTTERFLIES
EVERYWHERE!!!!!
Each year we plant host plants to attract Swallowtails, Monarchs and Viceroys to lay their eggs. We love to watch them hatch and grow into caterpillars. In the spring we plant annuals and perennials for nectaring plants for the butterflies.

All-STAR CHILDRENS' THEATER!
A.C.T. DRAMA CLUB TRYOUTS!!!!!!
All-Star Children’s Theater
WHAT? DRAMA!!!!!!!!!
WHEN?
WHERE? TBA
WHO? 4TH AND 5TH GRADE
TIME? 2:30 UNTIL 3:30
Students should be PREPARED to present a 2- minute skit, poem, song, monologue, routine, dance steps, etc. that will demonstrate creativity, originality, and personality. We will be looking for the following:
Poise (how one presents him/herself) examples: Do you have good eye contact? Are you too giggly? Are you calm and prepared? Can we hear you?
Effort (how much time and effort did you put into this? Is it something you’ve already done for something else or have you worked hard to create something new?)
Creative Expression (how well you change your voice, (inflection), and facial expressions in order to make a point or to convince the audience of something)
Creative Thinking ( how original or unique is your presentation?)
While performing a piece of music at the piano is definitely a demonstration of poise, effort and talent, it will not show the creativity and spontaneity we are looking for unless it is used only as a part of a skit or presentation!
