Curriculum Parade at Saints Cyril and Methodius!
While the school year seems to be speeding toward an end, students at Saints Cyril and Methodius are far from done sharing their love of learning with friends and family. Each grade had an opportunity to showcase the most exciting things they learned throughout this past school year at last week's SSCM Curriculum Parade.
From circus-themed first graders to creative poetry written by older students, spectators were entertained and impressed from start to finish. Third graders invented businesses and shared their wares with the audience in the form of poster boards and props galore. Meanwhile, seventh and eighth graders provided a demonstration of the small-scale roller coasters they designed and built with their own hands!
Fifth grade students had a bevy of earth-friendly ideas to showcase, covering everything from energy conservation to solar and wind-powered housing. And the crowd adored the second graders who came decked out and ready in their spiffy First Holy Communion gear, sharing pictures and scenes from their special day, and reciting a beautiful poem about baby Jesus and the blessed mother, Mary.
While it seems so easy for children and teachers alike to "check out" mentally during the final days of June, it was refreshing to see how engaged and enthusiastic all of the students and staff were after all of the hard work that went into putting together such a lovely day of curriculum-sharing as one of the last hurrahs of the school year!
