For the past few weeks, Miss Wagor’s 5th grade class has been reading several science texts and working to determine the central idea and key details of each text.
Students began with a short excerpt on the moon, followed by a lesson on identifying constellations. The scholars had the opportunity to create their own constellations with spaghetti and marshmallows.
Next, students read how Pluto stopped being a planet. Students identified a key detail to support this claim, such as how a planet has to clear its neighborhood of smaller objects around its orbit to be considered a planet, which Pluto failed to do.
Lastly, students read about how stars explode and included details leading up to the event. In conclusion, students were assigned a planet and a group where they conducted research on their planet. Then, they each created their own paper mache planets with flour, newspaper, water, paint, and hot glue!

CDHS students in Mrs. Jones' math classes have been hard at work in activities like "Speed Dating", a college math prep session.
One student would be tasked with solving an Absolute Value Equation (graphically and algebraically) question and then they would become the master of that question.
As the students "Speed Dated", they exchanged their questions with the student across from them and assisted them while they both are solving problems and answering any questions. Additionally, students participated in a bounce-around activity where they solved questions hanging on the wall.
There will be a blood drive on Nov. 16 in the Cairo-Durham High School gymnasium from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
