On May 9th, the students along with Ms. Wood presented their findings to the Dixfield Historical Society. On May 21st, students will complete their project when they return to the cemetery to clean some of the graves.

Every year, in Mrs. Johnston's class, they make a book. The students got to read, watch videos, and find facts about their insects. They went through the writing process of note taking, using a graphic organizer, separating out details, making a rough draft and then a final draft. Using some accommodations along the way (scribing the final draft), they got to make their insects to show what it looks like.
