FRUIT FIESTA!
The second grade at DES enjoyed a banquet of fruits and veggies as their reward for competing in the Spring Fruit and Veggie Challenge set by Nurse Ginny Hast! The rainbow of produce was truly yummy!
DES Welcomes Artist-in-Residence Marek Bennett! Marek is a cartoon artist and former teacher who
will provide instruction and experiences to all of our students in the art of
cartooning. The core groups, fourth and fifth grade, will work with Marek daily
for five days over the course of two weeks. The other classes will attend a
sample workshop with Marek, enabling all students at DES to participate in this
exciting residency. CONSTRUCTION SET TO BEGIN! DES is grateful to the Morin Contracting Company for their volunteerism in clearing pieces of the DES playground in preparation for construction to begin!
Ms. Vanderbok's Music Bulletin Board shows just what a treasure she is!Mrs. Virta's 5th Grade class had some fun after our March Nor'Easter!
DES was led by Outdoor Education majors from New England College in 4 weeks of outdoor activities on January Wednesday afternoons. Students experienced learning about winter survival, camp cooking, snowshoeing, winter games, building shelters, winter ecology and winter arts and crafts. Great fun was had by all--the students enjoyed it so much, they didn't even realize there was an underlying curriculum and that they were learning a lot! Pictured below are our own staff snowshoers: Mrs. Talmanson, Mrs. Hast, Mrs. MacNeilly and Mrs. Garnett. Thank you, New England College!!!! 6th Graders Connor McGuire and Lily Johnson explain facts of ancient Egyptian life to interested lower-grade visitors at the annual 6th Grade Egyptian Museum.
