Roderick Review (Week 10) 10/31/16-11/4/16

Second Annual Barnes & Noble Book Fair!
The Fall Book Fair will be held at Barnes and Noble in the Walpole Mall next Thursday 11/10 and Friday 11/11.  All purchases made during the fair (even at the CafĂ©!) will help procure new books for the Delaney and Roderick School libraries!  There will be student artwork on display as well as guest readers and other surprises throughout the fair, so be sure to check it out!  (Check your email for the detailed flyer!)

Congratulations to Student Council!
In less than one week's time, our fourteen 5th and 6th grade representatives, created the idea to have a special spirit day for Breast Cancer Awareness month in October.  Thanks to their efforts to organize this campaign, they raised over $500.00 for the Ellie Fund!  Thank you to all those who donated and to all those who wore their pink!

You will be hearing more about upcoming Spirit Days in the coming months that will be sponsored by the Student Council.

Some of this week's events in pictures...

Grade 5 students were learning more about the Aztec...


....Mayan, and Incan cultures through some experiential centers!


Sixth graders in Mrs. Moon's class created globe pumpkins and there were FIVE winners for the most accurate.  By using a variety of references including different maps and globes, these students did an outstanding job!


In Honor of Veterans Day and Military Family Month 
Thank you to all of our Wrentham veterans who courageously served our country in times of conflict and in times of peace!


UPCOMING GRADE 4 EVENT...
In just a few weeks, we will be celebrating Thanksgiving as a nation.  Our grade four students, for the second year in a row, will be a part of a service project to create care packages for those that are actively serving in the military to express their thanks to those that are serving our country to protect our freedom.  Stay tuned to learn more!


WRENTHAM FOOD PANTRY...
Just a reminder that we are collecting items for the Wrentham Food pantry in the lobbies at both schools.  You may drop items off at any time.  Thank you for your support!
