Here are 10 more photos from the 2nd ANNUAL ALMA AREA COMMUNITY FEST.
2nd ANNUAL Alma Area Community Fest
The Community Relations Committee, the School Board and the administration from the Alma School District sincerely 'THANK' the community organizations, the school personnel and ALL who volunteered for the 2nd Annual Community Fest. The pictures show some of the fun but not all because this app limits the pictures to a total of 10 uploads per post.
The B4 class jumped right in with their learning on how to use scissors, glue, crayons, and using their own imagination to create alligators for their first alphabet craft of the year!
Reminder-Alma Community Fest Tomorrow-Sunday, Sept. 10 from Noon - 3:00 at the Alma Rod and Gun Club!
The Alma Area Community Fest will have a 'Music Walk' at the end. Do you remember the traditional "Cake Walk?" This Music Walk at the Community Fest is similar. Our music is the school song, "The Notre Dame Victory March" and the prizes are t-shirts --instead of cakes. Thank you, Kori, for holding up one of the t-shirt designs.
The Out of School Time program called 'Rivermen Quests' began on Sept. 7th after school. The students started on a project called "I've Got that Geometry Bug." Students are learning about insects, analyzing the geometrical aspects of various insect bodies, naming attributes of geometry shapes AND, in the end, the project based result will be a student 3D designed insect. Each will be named, and the students will write about a day in the life of this geometry bug. Here are few pictures of the students using shapes to create insects.
