Vernal Pool Project in Grade 5

Our Cove School 5th graders have been working on a vernal pool place based learning project.  Students had to analyze and interpret data from a staff and parent survey on visitation to the Cove School Vernal Pool.  One of the problems they discovered was that students were not visiting the vernal pool regularly.  A possible solution was to create a sign so visitors would know here the entrance to the pool could be found.  Our fifth graders worked on a vernal pool poster contest and one lucky fifth grader was chosen.  Congratulations to our winner Mars Orfanos on his vernal pool poster!!!

Happy Vacation!

May You Enjoy a Restful - And White - Vacation : )

A wonderfully successful evening of Poetry! Thanks to all who attended and took part in our event!!
I (Sue McLane) was so concerned about remembering to thank the "big people" - Mass Cultural Council, Cove School Faculty, Andrew Green, city and state legislators, Cove school families for supporting our arts... 
I FORGOT to thank the "big people to me" - Meagan Grant, Sarah Burgess, Jen Sidmore, Diana DeRochemente, Kelly Johnson, Martha Tassineri, Carla Orr.

Grade 5 Move-Up Day

“Our aspirations are our possibilities.”

-Robert Browning

January 5, 2015

Dear Grade 5 Parents/Guardians:

At this time, many of you may be thinking about your fifth grade son’s/daughter's transition to middle school next year. This transition is clearly an important event in your child's life, and one that we would like to make as smooth and comfortable as possible.

In order to facilitate this transition into middle school, we have scheduled two separate events.  Our first event is our Grade 5 Move-Up Night, scheduled for Thursday, January 22, 2015.  You and your child are invited to learn about Briscoe Middle School and meet some members of its faculty, beginning at 7:00 PM in the school’s auditorium.  During this evening, you will hear from the school’s administration, guidance counselors, and current 6^th grade teachers.  In addition, you will be afforded the opportunity to tour the building with your child after the presentation in the auditorium.  Please mark your calendars for Thursday, January 22^nd at 7:00 PM.  We hope to see you all there!

Our second event will be scheduled for the spring of 2015.  At this time, administrators from Briscoe will be visiting your child’s elementary school for a question and answer session.  Prior to this visit, we will be providing transition forms to your child’s teacher so that we may begin scheduling for our 2014-2015 school year. 

We all look forward to meeting you and your child on Thursday, January 22, 2015 at 7:00 PM in the Briscoe Middle School Auditorium.

Sincerely,

Mr. Matthew P. Poska             Mrs. Amy Gerade                     Mr. Terrence Conant
