Ohio History Day
Eighth graders in Ms. Victoria Thompson’s social studies class presented their Ohio History Day projects to an esteemed panel of judges last Friday. Ohio History Day strives to teach students research skills, implementation of primary and secondary sources, developing and supporting a thesis, and presentation skills. Students excelled in their interview process and several students from NDMS will be competing at the regional competition on April 1. From this competition students may be asked to compete at the statewide competition on April 22! Stay tuned to find out who advances and congratulations to all our regional candidates!
Amazing Dogs!
Mrs. Betsy Dunn and her team from Guiding Eyes for the Blind treated the students in the Amazing Animals elective to a highly informative presentation. Students learned about the training that Labrador retrievers go through to become guide dogs. Not only did the students enjoy hearing the stories shared by Mrs. Dunn and her team, they loved interacting with the dogs! We are so thankful for the work done by the staff at Guiding Eyes for the Blind to give the gift of companionship and joy to those with vision loss.
Middle School Library Elective
Mrs. Colleen DiSanto’s fourth grade class came to the library to work on their president reports. They received assistance from the Middle School Tech Aides and used resources in the library to help them complete their project.
Who Am I?
The seventh graders delivered an informational speech in first person point-of-view about a person in history, literature, pop culture, sports, business, entertainment, etc. while describing their famous person’s contribution to our society. Adorned in costumes, the seventh graders did a phenomenal job!
