Independent Studies, Science Projects, And Other Exciting Things

We have finally started our yearly Independent Studies and our Science Projects. We have some extremely interesting topics. We have only just started really working on these, so we are not very far through on these projects. These projects will be lasting for a long time, as they are yearly long term projects. The Middle School I.S.’s and S.P.’s have begun!!!

The Vikings from Ancient Africa

The Middle School is currently involved in two group projects: one studying Ancient African Civilizations, and the other studying Vikings. Daisy, Samrawit, and Kati (me), who are studying Ancient Africa, are creating a map showing the Ancient African Civilizations, complete with paragraphs about some of the more important ones in African History. Alana, Rowie, Hawke, Carter, Aidan, and Matthew are studying Vikings. They are doing various projects, including a map, an educational game, and various research on topics such as weapons, religion, and other interesting things like that.
