Forest Heights STEM Academy K-8 -

✨ Today our FHSA 7th grade students traveled to Northwest Arkansas for a fun-filled and educational adventure! 🎨 They enjoyed a guided tour of Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art as part of our Windgate School Partnership Program. We love providing our students with opportunities to connect art, history, and learning in such an inspiring setting! 💛

Ms. Sellers' 8th grade English students also took their learning to the next level with an in-depth character study of the novel’s major characters. They illustrated each character, selected key quotes to support their analysis, and explored how each person’s choices and relationships shape the story’s powerful themes of identity, loyalty, and belonging. 💭🖊️ From dressing up as Greasers and Socs, to creating poetry and art inspired by “Nothing Gold Can Stay,” these students truly brought literature to life! 🌅💛

Today was a big day for our FHSA 8th grade English students! 🌅📚 To wrap up their novel study of The Outsiders, students came dressed as Greasers or Socs bringing the story to life in the best way! 👕🧥 In the background, you’ll spot their incredible artwork inspired by Robert Frost’s poem “Nothing Gold Can Stay.” After analyzing the poem’s meaning and connecting it to the novel’s central symbol- a sunset- students created their own sunset art pieces and wrote original poems reflecting those themes. ✍️🎨 What a creative and meaningful way to celebrate literature, art, and self-expression! 🌞💛
