This Week at Roderick School...
Sixth Grade News
COUNTRY FAIR - Sixth graders presented as experts in an open presentation where visitors passed by each station. Students shared what they had learned about their country's geography and climate, student life, government, famous landmarks, important figures, and much more. In addition, they studied the country's culture and had samples of traditional foods their country is known for available to the visitors. As I visited the different stations, I was impressed at how students were able to answer spontaneous questions and share information on-the-spot even when that information was not on their presentation board. A special thanks to the family and friends who visited the Country Fair, too!
