Odyssey of the Mind - 4th and 5th Grades.
Bonny View’s Odyssey of the Mind Team is preparing for the North State Tournament being held on February 25th at Mountain View School in Redding. This year’s team has chosen Problem 5: Odyssey Angels as their problem to solve. Their job will be to create and present an original performance portraying a group of students who encounter negative situations that they turn into positive ones. Odyssey of the Mind competitions require that all of the ideas come from the students and all of the work is done by the students.
In addition to preparing for their performance (script-writing, making props, backdrops and costumes, and rehearsing) the team will be participating in Spont Day on January 21st. Local Odyssey teams join in activities on Spont Day that will help them prepare for the North State Tournament. This team will be very busy over the coming months!
School Newspaper — 4th and 5th Grades
Student reporters on Bonny View’s school newspaper, The Paper Whiskers, are working together to create a paper that is fun and informative for the entire student body. The students are improving their writing, typing and proofreading skills as well as learning how to conduct interviews and use publishing software. They even help with printing and distributing the newspaper. These students are having a fun and rewarding experience as they participate in the production of the newspaper from start to finish.
