Students have been learning about "La Familia" and "La Moda". They all have been working hard on their projects before leaving for the break. Seventh grade had a "Desfile de Ropa" with special guests (the Pre-K class with Mrs. Orzechowski) and they presented their brand and their clothing to the class. We always have a great time with these little amigos. Sixth grade started their presentations and we also got a chance to practice our Español with a school in Costa Rica (it was Señora's cousin's class at New Horizon Christian School). ¡Gracias Prima!
Got a green thumb? March 18 isn't just for the luck 'o the Irish -- it's also a day to share your love of the Indian River Lagoon. Even if houseplants don't stand a chance in your home, you have an opportunity to play an important role in improving our precious waterways. Through a partnership with ORCA, local lagoon lovers will gather at 9 a.m. at DeSoto park to plant species along the water's edge that will protect the shoreline and all of the baby critters who rely on places to hide and grow. These important plants also help keep the waters of the lagoon clean. Plan to bring a pair of gloves and your own water. Interested in learning more? Contact Mrs. Nelson in the Marine Bio department.
Kindergarteners had fun making a bowl out of clay using the pinch pot technique. The students carved designs on the bowl and made imprints with sea shells.
In honor of Black History Month, Spanish 2 classes celebrated trailblazing Afro-Latinos. Honors classes wrote and starred in TV talk shows between a host and their influential guest using green screen technology. Students did an amazing job stretching their Spanish skills and producing engaging, hilarious and memorable videos.
College-prep classes created colecciones that are on display in the Waxlax. The colecciones—inspired by memorial displays in the Kennedy Space Center—highlight key aspects of the personal and professional lives of Afro-Latino movers and shakers. Please stop by to admire their work and practice your Spanish!
A very special shout out to Mrs. Fykes, Ms. Raymond and Mrs. Michos for sharing their expertise with Dr. Martin and her students!
Inspired by Stuart Davis and Modern Art, fourth graders worked collaboratively to create this bold abstract art titled "Art Is Everywhere." Students cut shapes and recognizable things from self-adhesive paper for the collage.
Students in Digital Literacy were asked to create a piece of art in Google Slides using only rectangles. They had to use a minimum of 30 rectangles. Mrs. Fykes was blown away with their creativity. The class voted and selected the top 4 designs. Mrs. Fykes then polled the MS faculty to select the grand winner. Congratulations to Jenessa Kendall for winning the most votes.

Marine science students kayaked and observed seagrass communities on World Seagrass Day. It was windy so the Indian River Lagoon was turbid and the shallows were the only clear water around! Students were able to identify shoal grass Halodule wrightii which is a pioneer species of disturbed areas and inhabits areas that are too shallow for other seagrass species. Students observed gastropods, dolphins and crustaceans and then removed debris from the seagrass beds to improve the health of the IRL.
Middle and upper school students put forth a tremendous effort at the 2023 IRL Envirothon Competition. The eighth-grade team of Charlie Corrigan, Jack Curley, Cesar Dato-Slattery, Isabella Peter and Spencer Taft topped all 23 other groups of both middle and upper school students to win the category of Soils and tied an upper school group for first place in the category of Indian River Lagoon. The upper school team of Augie Barreirinhas, Tyler Beare, C.H. Brown, Talan Crookshank and Jasper Nelson got the highest overall score for Indian River County high schools. Congratulations to all!

This week, second graders were very excited to share their poetry with peers. The children are learning strategies to express themselves using precise language in their original poetry.
Fourth-grade students took on the role of scientists as they investigated the aerodynamics of paper airplanes. Students followed scientific methods. After building and throwing paper airplanes, students made observations and brainstormed possible variables to test. Once groups identified a testable question, they worked in collaborative groups to research motion, forces, energy, and aerodynamics. To plan their experiment, students identified variables, visualized their project, listed materials, wrote step-by-step procedures, and created a data table. To conduct their experiment, students controlled their variables, measured with metric units, and recorded data. Students learned how to analyze their data by averaging their results, making a bar graph, and drawing a conclusion. Students learned the importance of keeping a detailed logbook, measuring with precision and accuracy, and documenting their experiments. You can click on this link to see the science fair process in action.
An integral part of the Lower School experience is learning how to conduct long-term projects. Over the past month, fourth-grade students explored the aerodynamics of paper airplanes by following the scientific methods. Making observations, asking questions, researching, planning and conducting experiments, and recording data are among the invaluable skill sets students engaged in as part of this process. Students also honed their presentation skills as they practiced sharing their projects with peers and various classes at the Lower School. All these efforts culminated in a Science Fair Showcase, where proud faces abounded as students presented their projects to family and friends! Please click on the link to see a video from this special day!
Teachers, parents and MS/US students: next Friday, March 3, vendors for the 31st Annual Trunk Show will be loading their wares into the WAC, so Chef Diego will be offering "grab and go" lunches in the courtyard behind the library. There will be sandwiches, salad and cookies available.
Pizza lunch will be available for LS students who are already signed up for pizza. All other LSstudents must bring their lunch from home.
Biology teacher Brandy Nelson brought three juniors and two seniors to The Indian River Lagoon Symposium this week at the Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute of FAU.
The event is a multi-institutional and multi-agency effort to provide a forum for discussing the most current research findings and restoration projects associated with the Indian River Lagoon. It is designed to narrow the gap between research and the application of that research that is required to improve the health of the IRL.
Scientists from all over Florida participate and the focus of this year’s symposium was IRL seagrasses. Students were able to utilize their knowledge of seagrasses and water quality from classes to step deeper into real world applications by listening to research talks and observing the associated research posters. They also had an opportunity to view AUVs, ROVs, submersibles and engineering areas during their lunch break.
You're invited to join JRA this summer! The 2023 program guide will be available February 28 on the Jolly Roger Adventures website, and registration begins on March 1. Be sure to save the link and check back on February 28 to see the endless opportunities for every camper.

Fifth-grade students have steadfastly worked in creating their freshwater collection systems, which endured multiple iterations throughout the design process. While all our students demonstrated an impressive ability to think outside the box and solve a real-world problem, Audrey Elliott and Savannah Shambo collected an awe-inspiring 95 mL of freshwater with their final collection system. Baxter Corrigan and JD Sorensen tied with Isla Dyer and Gertie Busch-Dunford for a very commendable 41 mL of freshwater collected. Congratulations to all our future engineers and scientists for a job exceptionally well done!
Inspired by Florida's landscape painters known as the Highwaymen, the fourth graders painted vibrant watercolor scenes of Florida. The students used reference photos as well as images from memory for their paintings while applying various watercolor techniques on paper.
After learning about the Renaissance, portraiture and Leonardo's Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, the first graders created a mixed-media self-portrait. The students used mirrors for observation, focusing on symmetry, proportion and values for their depiction of themselves.
Yesterday was the 101st day of school! Kindergarten students celebrated the milestone by parading around campus as the 101 Dalmatians.
