In last week's Summer School Photography class, students learned how to take photos up close, at different angles, how to focus on a subject, and what composition means in photography. They took photo walks inside the school and outside in the school forest. The week ended with students creating a photo album with their favorite photos to take home!

On Thursday, Passport Around the World's journey took them to Scandinavia! One of their amazing students shared authentic Norwegian clothes and items, which was incredible. They also indulged in delicious Danish Æbleskivers and Swedish chokladbollar—both were absolutely delightful! They wrapped up the day by crafting friendly trolls and playing with LEGO, (originally from Denmark). It was a fantastic week exploring the world. What adventures will next week bring??

Students in PE Potpourri have been very active these past two days. They've played musical chairs, tag, and done relays in the hallway. Sharks and minnows has been their absolute favorite game to play though! They have been having so much fun playing all their games that students always leave this class very tired and sweaty, as does Ms. Wagner! Friendly reminder for all students to do their best in bringing a water bottle to summer school every day! Interested in joining session 2 of summer school that starts on Monday?!
