The 8th grade students recently completed their study of the classic novel The Outsiders. To commemorate this milestone, they engaged in a celebration that highlighted the timeless themes woven throughout the story.
The students explored the novel's exploration of themes such as social class divisions, loyalty, personal identity, and the universal struggles of adolescence. Through discussions, activities, and creative projects, the 8th graders were able to deeply connect with the enduring messages of The Outsiders.
This celebratory event allowed the students to showcase their understanding and appreciation for the novel's impactful themes. It was an exciting opportunity for them to demonstrate their mastery of the material and share their insights with their peers and teachers.
Our fourth-grade students brought in and began presenting their amazing animal research projects today. The projects focused on the structures of various animals, how those structures function, and how each animal has adapted to survive in their environments.
Students also had to develop a rehoming plan for their chosen animal and create a display showcasing how the animal would be cared for in Little Rock, including the necessary elements for its survival.
Here are a couple of standout examples from their fabulous work!
