The Revolutionary War Ball is Coming Soon!
On Tuesday, May 6th,
the fifth grade students will be take part in an integrated
instructional unit pertaining to the Revolutionary War Period. Because
we know that students learn well through simulations, we have hired
“River Crossing, Inc.” to enhance this unit of history standards.
Thanks to generous donations from our own PTA and
Chipotle,
this program is being offered to our students at NO COST! In addition
to readings and discussions in the classrooms, students will benefit
from the learning experiences listed below.
¨ 9:30
AM to 10:05 AM The Long hunter
¨ 10:15
AM to 12:00 PM Colonial Attire and Etiquette
¨ 12:50
PM to 2:20 PM Dance Practice
¨ 5:30
PM to 7:00 PM Revolutionary War Ball
A note about the Ball:
Students are encouraged to dress in costumes from the time period. Girls
and mothers may wear long or dressy dresses from home. Boys and fathers
may
wear white shirts and dark pants with tube socks for the knickers
effect. Costumes can also be found/created at Goodwill, neighbors, or
rental shops. The ball will feature an orchestra with instruments from
the time period, a dance instructor, and refreshments. Due to limited
space in the gym, we ask that siblings not attend this event. If you
have any questions or concerns, please contact your child’s teacher.
May in...
