Cooperative Elementary
Our fifth Bridge to Broadway production was Disney’s The Jungle Book! Having a regular creative outlet is not just part of a well-rounded education – it’s essential for a child’s emotional health and well-being. Besides being incredibly fun, musical theater helps develop many of the skills necessary for success in today’s world.
This winter the Coho class has been learning how to think like scientists by experimenting with water! We started with a field trip to local parks to take notes and collect water samples and then observed them with microscopes and documented findings.
Each week this session we are traveling to a new geographic location to explore cultures through cooking and art. So far, we’ve adventured to Ukraine to make Pierogies and experiment with Pysanky egg designs and then to Thailand for Thai Red Curry, Green Papaya Salad and to craft Loy Krathaong floating rafts. We learned about the Thai tradition of floating rafts to thank the water spirits for sustaining life and a successful rice harvest. Stay tuned for our next adventure!
