7th grade students enjoyed their first day of Culture Shock, a new program at C-I, during their advisory hour. Culture Shock is a mentor program that allows our younger students to connect with our older students.
Culture Shock is a Social-Emotional Learning Curriculum that was developed by Mr. Dirks and Mrs. Syrstad. Their goal is to make students feel safe, capable, and responsible for their success and learning. On the first day of Culture Shock, students worked on knowing our school. Students had to work in teams to locate important places in the school. As you can tell from the pictures, it quickly turned into a race to see who could make it to all spots the quickest.
The name Culture Shock comes from the desire to change the overall culture of our school to be a place where students want to be. We want people from other schools and the community to look at our school and say, "Wow, Crosby-Ironton has a great school culture." In order to accomplish this, we might need to do some shocking things!
5th graders in Mrs. Horner's science class are working collaboratively on the engineering design process to build a tower using only: 20 spaghetti noodles, 1 meter of string, and 1 meter of masking tape.
Mrs. Roubinek's second grade class was busy discovering items with their hands and making observations. They explored a beehive and a large amethyst rock.
These students also finished their individual puzzle piece craft to show how different we all are, but when put together as a whole, can create an amazing classroom and masterpiece!
Taking advantage of a beautiful sunny day is Mrs. Syrstad's 7th grade English class!😎
Students in Mr. Dirks 7th Grade Science class, helped Harry the Marshmallow build towers, using only note cards! How high up do you think Harry made it?
3rd graders in Ms. Mumm's class used problem solving and collaboration to “save” Fred the gummy worm! Students had to team up and use only paper clips to get a life saver gummy from underneath the solo cup and put Fred the gummy worm through his life preserver! This was lots of fun … and a yummy treat! #teamwork #gocigo
