Sacajawea Summer STEM Camp- Registration -- Campamento de STEM- Registración

Sacajawea Students, join us this summer for a week full of fun STEM activities! STEM camp will be about Science, Technology, Engineering and Math - STEM!

We will hold two weeks of STEM Camp. The 1st week will be for incoming 1st-3rd grade students. The second week will be for incoming 4th and 5th graders.

We are now accepting applications for our campers. Applications will be time stamped and will be taken as a first come basis. There are a limited amount of spots for each camp.

Our biggest ask is your complete commitment, in ensuring that your student makes the most of this opportunity. If a student signs up but does not attend, it takes the opportunity away from another student.

Here are some important notes about our camp:

• Camp is for students coming into the 2020-2021 school year. Sorry 5th graders- Middle school will have so many opportunities for you!
• So, if you have a kid currently in 1st grade, they will register as a second grader. 
• We will not be providing transportation. Families are responsible for getting kids to camp each morning, and home each afternoon - on time. 
• Your registration will be signed off by your student’s teacher. 
• Lunch and a snack will be provided every day.

Reading Buddies - 2nd and 5th Grade

Mrs. Rudan's 5th graders got a visit from 2nd grade reading buddies from Ms. Burton's class last week.

SAC 5th Graders Study Stream Science

Mrs. Rudan's 5th grade class had the chance to travel to the Boise Water Shed to do some hands-on science related to streams. What a great opportunity to do STEM learning that matters.

Rotation #1: Toilet horseshoes and water testing for turbidity, pH, temp &  oxygen

Rotation #2: Macro invertebrate collection and identification

Rotation #3: Tour of "the chocolate river"... right after lunch 🤪🤢

Rotation #4: Hands-on Educational center

We are so proud of our students, and the way they represent our community.

STEM Camp for SAC 5th Graders at Gowen Field

This week 5th graders at Sacajawea get the privilege of traveling to Gowen Field to act as designers, engineers, scientists and mathematicians.  Yesterday was day 1 of Starbase, a fantastic opportunity to do hands-on STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) provided by the US Military.  We are so proud of our designers, scientists, engineers, experimenters, problem-solvers.  What a great way to cap the last 6 years of learning.  Bright futures ahead.

Sacajawea Students Attend a Boise Philharmonic Orchestra Concert

On February 7th, 100 students from the Sacajawea's fourth and fifth grades traveled to Brandt Auditorium on the NNU campus.  They attended the "Children's Concert" as presented by the Boise Philharmonic Orchestra. This was a great opportunity for our students to experience some wonderful music and to have a concert experience.

5th Grade Students Create Anti-Bullying Projects

5th Grade workshop students researched some articles about bullying and worked on pulling important details from texts. They then spent a couple of days choosing and planning a project to bring awareness to the topic. You may notice a chunk of them wearing blue today since that's the color that represents the World Day of Bullying Prevention, which is today, October 1.
The self-elected projects included:

• Informational video
• Slideshow
• Posters
• Bookmarks (to be handed out at lunch)
• Homemade t-shirts

Sacajawea’s Fifth Grade Students Read to First Graders!

Recently, a group of fifth grade students came down to read books to the first grade students.  It was fun seeing all of the students interacting together around books. The older ones were explaining things and the younger students were asking questions.  Thank you Kristy Rodan for arranging this and having your students so prepared to read to the first graders!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

¡Los estudiantes de quinto grado de Sacajawea leen a alumnos de primer grado! 

Recientemente, un grupo de estudiantes de quinto grado bajó a leer libros a los estudiantes de primer grado. Fue divertido ver a todos los estudiantes interactuar juntos alrededor de los libros. Los estudiantes más grandes estaban explicando cosas y los estudiantes más chicos estaban haciendo preguntas. Gracias Kristy Rudan por hacer los arreglos para esto y tener a sus estudiantes tan preparados para leer a los alumnos de primer grado!
