Elementary students studied Pablo Picasso in their Spanish classes and created portraits inspired by his style.
The Birds of Prey presentation was last Friday at UME playground for K-5th sponsored by the UME PTO and facilitated by WINGMASTERS a non-profit dedicated to increasing public understanding and appreciation of North American birds of prey. Julie Anne Collier and Jim Parks are both licensed raptor rehabilitators based in Massachusetts. Together they care for injured birds of prey.
Most of the birds they rehabilitate can ultimately be released back into the wild, but in some cases the birds are left permanently handicapped. Julie and Jim are further licensed to provide a home for these nonreleasable raptors, and to use them for educational programs. Since 1994 WINGMASTERS has presented over 5000 programs at schools, libraries and museums throughout New England.

Mrs. Sarnacki’s First Responder class was invited to attend a Science Fair, sponsored by Moderna and the Boston Red Sox. Students attended thought provoking lectures from Jet Blue, Moderna Pharmaceuticals, and a Boston meteorologist. They were challenged to try and safely drop an egg off the 36 foot “Green Monster”. After trying a couple of different designs and testing them by dropping them off the 2nd floor of the gymnasium (not 36 feet, but our best option), the class decided on using popcorn to cushion the egg. We are happy to report that our design was a winning one, our egg did not break! Side note: all of the eggs used were laid by Mrs. Sarnacki’s own chickens! After the fair, students stayed to watch the Red Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles!
