The 6th graders presented their Day of the Dead altars they constructed virtually today in Spanish! After learning how Day of the Dead is celebrated in Mexico on Nov. 1 & 2 and the various items that are commonly placed on “ofrendas” (altars) for remembrance, students used their own research, tech savvy skills, and much creativity to construct their own for a deceased person. A job well done!!
Today, our IHS JustWrite members are preparing for their 12/16 tournament & our IMS Power of the Pen members are preparing for their February tournament! #iPride

One of our district's most amazing resources is our Outdoor Education Center and Land Lab!

The video also features our fourth graders who visited the Land Lab and learned so much today. #iPride https://youtu.be/jEfn46GJzHc
