Last Week of School!

By Hero's Journey Academy

Session 7 Week 5 Year 2

Exhibition Rehearsal

After picking the roles for exhibition and setting the schedule, the Eagles are ready to start rehearsing for the exhibition! They wrote down their speeches, timed themselves, and practiced their public speaking skills!

We will be starting these types of workshops for the Eagles to sign up to participate in! This week we had a Cake Workshop, Mrs. Molley came and showed the Eagles how to bake and decorate cakes!

Do you have any feedback for us?

Mr. Lewis came to visit the Eagles again now that it is close to the end of their Writers’ Workshop! They decided to line up and each read their technical writing to him and then asked for feedback. The learners took the feedback and worked on their writing before Exhibition day! Thank you Mr. Lewis for your warm and cool feedback!

Our last Exhibition

Parents joined the Eagles for their last exhibition! They shared their end of the year portfolios, quest work, writers’ workshop, and foreign language speeches. We ended with the Eagle panel and the Eagles celebrated their accomplishments!
