SQUASH! 

SQUASH comes in a CORNUCOPIA of  VARIETIES,

each with a UNIQUE SHAPE, SIZE, TEXTURE, FLAVOR, and more. 

These VARIED ATTRIBUTES make for a

DIVERSE and ABUNDANT PALATE, MUCH LIKE PEOPLE.

FOCUS for the year will integrate our SQUASH THEME

as it pertains to diversity, attributes (physical and character traits), sensory integration, and creative writing.

Additionally, students' writing will expand

BEYOND THE BLACKBOARD,

REAL-WORLD connection and application:

advertisements, newspaper articles, editorials,

menus, recipes, directions, letters...
