Wind River Middle School students are studying the Holocaust starting with informational text and then moving into book studies that blend the historical pieces from the ushmm.com website and the ELA standard that focuses on themes in literature. Pictured are the books that each grade is studying.
Why study the Holocaust? "Although unique in time and place, the Holocaust was nonetheless a human event that raises challenging questions: about individual and collective responsibility, the meaning of active citizenship, and about the structures and societal norms that can become dangerous for certain groups and society as a whole" (IHRA)
We encourage you to check in with your child(ren) on their classes. Did you know that extensive studies have shown that the more parents engage in at-home conversations with their children about what they are learning, the more they achieve in school?
The 7th grade STEM classes are using various types of modeling and design processes to produce a three-dimensional puzzle cube. They will make use of scrap hardwood blocks that are left over from furniture production. The students are currently working on their prototypes.
