Group 3's Joke Book

Powder Valley Hike

The students enjoyed an encounter with nature on our Powder Valley Consevation Nature Center field trip this week. Some of the groups met deer along the path and stopped to listen to the many sounds of the forest as they hiked the beautiful trails. They also enjoyed the many exhibits inside the nature center which include a real bee hive, an aquarium of fish native to Missouri's rivers and streams, and a nature puppet stage.





The Nature Center is open year round, is centrally located and offers many different classes throughout the year. You can visit Powder Valley's blog for up-to-date notes on the latest natural events and scheduled programs.

Session 2 Begins

The students began the 2nd session of Extreme Media today. Each group has chosen an interesting way to use media to express themselves. Group 1 students have entered the world of I Spy. Group 2 will be continuing our Miriam News Crew newspaper as well as performing in a Fairy Tale movie. Group 3 will publish their magazine and create podcasts and Group 4 will continue to entertain us with the daily broadcast of Good Morning, Miriam.

We're looking forward to another productive 2 weeks!

The Magic House

The students headed to the new and improved Magic House this week for our summer's first field trip. We visited the three branches of government, built a new house, caught some fish and solved a mystery. No wonder we were all so tired when we returned!
