History Workshare Info (Thursday May 30)

Dear Upper Elementary Families,

 

We cordially invite you to our Spring UE Work Share event on Wednesday, May 29th, and Thursday, May 30th. This semester, our Upper Elementary students have been hard at work on independent projects with a shared focus on history. They are excited to share the results of their research with you.

 

For this Work Share, we invite you to see as many projects as your time allows! 4th and 5th years will be sharing history research, and 6th years will be sharing their Imaginary Island capstone project (and for some additional research they have done!). Guides will be present, but will intentionally stay in the background in an effort to make space for your child to lead and shine.   


Wednesday, May 29th:

- Otter Tail

- Shingobee

- Crow Wing


Thursday, May 30th:

- Little Elk

- Swan

- Blue Earth

 

The students will have their work set up and be ready to present from 1:30-2:45 pm. After the end of work share, families are welcome to sign out students for an early 2:45 pm dismissal.

 

If you would like to pick up a sibling early, please e-mail attendance@greatriverschool.org with the name of the siblings you are picking up. Derek will be waiting in the cafe area with siblings at 2:45 so that you can sign them out from the main office.


Parking: Please only park in Bandana Square or along the south side of Energy Lane. As this event ends at 2:45, it's too close to dismissal to allow parking on the north side of Energy Lane (the pick up/drop off side) -- busses will be lining up by that point, as will other vehicles. 

 

We look forward to hosting these events for you and your children. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or comments!

 

In anticipation,

 

Upper Elementary Staff
