Global Exchange
In this cottage students will learn how their world is interconnected globally. Students will develop a spatial understanding of the world around them so they can understand how other cultures and civilizations are interconnected and have influenced who we are as a community, state and Nation.



Weather Station
In this quarter students develop an understanding of the distribution and role of water and wind in weather, shaping the land and where organisms live. Wind and water can also change environments and students can learn that humans and other organisms change it as well. An understanding  of changing patterns in the sky including the position of the Sun, Moon and stars as well as the apparent shape of the Moon will be taught as well.

Friendly Reminders

These have been written and approved by administration in accordance to what is currently being taught in cottages.

Artwork Changes

Hello Volunteers! Welcome back to the new school year! Our first month started out well, we had 19 lessons in August! That is amazing! I am looking forward to another great year with the Art Masterpiece Program! This year I will be adding a few new lessons and updating any that need to be fixed. Please let me know if any of the links aren't working or if you notice any other issues with the lessons. My main goal for this year is to make Artwork slideshows for each Artist. This will keep the links from changing, so they should always be accessible to you. As well as give us more control as to what the students view in class. I have been careful when choosing the Artwork links but from time to time these sites can change. We haven't had any accidental inappropriate viewings in classrooms but I have been contacted by volunteers or teachers a few times over the past couple years about sites that have put up an inappropriate picture. With slideshows of ...
