Hispanic Heritage Month has just ended, but we want to highlight some of the amazing things that have been happening around our school... Each day, students have been doing the Pledge of Allegiance in Spanish. Students have also been highlighting different countries each day over the announcements. Mi Pueblo Supermarket sponsored our door decorating contest, and gave winning teachers a $50 gift card to any of their locations. The class period that decorated their doors also received goodie bags with Hispanic candy. We have had a great month at Calera Middle School!
Mrs. Justice's class is transforming the school hallways with their spooky perspective drawings! Using one-point perspective, students are creating eerie renditions of the hallways, inspired by surreal artists like Salvador Dalí. Get ready to be spooked by their imaginative and surreal masterpieces!
October means it is SPOOKY SEASON. 8th grade ELA kicked off the month with Spooky Stories by the Campfire featuring Edgar Allan Poe’s The Tell Tale Heart. We even got creative with choosing the “flame” that had vocabulary words to find!
