Give me a B... Give me an I... Give me an N...

That's right, we are playing BINGO. It's our last fundraiser before the trip and the kids hope to make enough money to cover ALL of their expenses. They have had great success so far in raising money toward the trip. BINGO will be held at the Lake Providence Country Club on Thursday night (4/30/09) at 6:00 p.m. You can buy individual cards or pay $25.00 and play all night! The $25.00 will also get you a hot dog meal so you won't go home hungry. Prizes will be selected by each winner which makes it even more fun. Come out and support the 6th grade and have a great time!

Vicksburg Military Park

How much American History can we fit into a year? This year seems to be quite a bit. After two weeks of study on the Civil War, the 6th grade class took a field trip to the Vicksburg Military Park. The had a great time putting their knowledge to the test and learning some of the little known facts while they were there. They also re-enacted a battle scene as you can see from the pictures. Learning involves seeing and touching as well as hearing as this class is well aware. They can't wait to set their feet in Washington D.C. and see and feel some of what they have heard and learned this year.
