Animals After Dark

Lower School Green Team students learned about nocturnal animals in an exciting way.  With lights off in the library, Media Specialist Amanda Forbes read by flashlight from a book titled After Dark: Poems about Nocturnal Animals by David L. Harrison.  The students located pictures of the animals in the poems by flashlight. Then Ms. Forbes led the students through creating acrostic poems about some of the animals in the book, and each student chose an animal about which to write their own acrostic poem.

History of Transportation in Cincinnati

The Cincinnati Museum Center brought to Lower School students a hands-on experience exploring the history of transportation in Cincinnati. Students simulated moving goods by mule-powered canal boat and used working models of the five inclines that moved Cincinnatians to neighborhoods on higher ground in the late 19th century. They learned about the era of streetcars, the reasons Cincinnati's subway system was never realized, and the factors that drove changes in transportation systems across the decades.
