WMES 5TH GRADE SHARE GRATITUDE Megan Evander JAN 13, 2021 It is not a secret that 2020 has created many new challenges across the world, some large, some small. With all of these challenges comes opportunity and that is exactly what Mrs. Schwarz exemplifies when asking her students to reflect on what they are grateful for. Mrs. Megan Schwarz, 5th grade teacher at WMES used a digital tool called Mentimeter to visually display what her students are grateful for and reflect on how this year has shaped their views on life and education. Take a look at what our 5th grade students are grateful for. “Gratitude turns what we have into enough” - Aesop

Great work Mrs. Marshall’s Middle School Animal Science class! Grades 6,7,8 grade worked on their final project for our Herpetology Unit (the study of amphibians and reptiles). Each student chose a species to research and display in their choice of project. They also had reports, slide shows, books, and posters. Check out their masterpieces below. https://5il.co/oi2t
