As their gift to you, the fifth-graders have prepared Advent prayer podcasts.  Each group chose a reading from each Sunday in Advent to ponder. They wrote reflections, rehearsed their parts, and with the help of Mrs. Zwilling in the STEAM Lab, they recorded, edited, and added music tracks.  They invite you to pray with them for the remainder of Advent, using these audio tracks as a guide.

The sixth-graders read Israel Horovitz's stage adaptation of Dickens's A Christmas Carol . They then adapted popular Christmas carols to reflect Scrooge's attitude before his transformation.  Also in grade six literature, students took what they learned by studying Joseph Campbell’s hero’s journey and aligned it with a popular film of their choice.
