Principal’s Message— Enjoy this week’sGrowl and have a wonderful weekend!

5th Grade Students in Mrs. West Class Travel the World - Mrs. West’s class visited Africa, Asia, and the International Space Station (virtually of
course). While visiting the continents, they interacted with wild animals, birds, and insects. They ex-claimed their excite-
ment at encountering elephants, cobras, giant spi-ders, and dung beetles. On the space station, they toured various areas and viewed equipment and learned what they are used for.

Parents, don’t forget to set your clocks ahead by one hour this Sunday!

—On Thursday, 6th grade made hu-man number lines with integers. Room 21 & room 18 competed against each other in the activity! Check out the photos.

THE
Celebrations Around the World

GROWL
The Ibu Afo Festival is held in Nigeria to celebrate the arrivalof the New Year. Around March20 a New Year’s ceremony is held that marks the end of the old year and the arrival of the new. The date isset by the council of elders. They determine the exact hour of the celebration. When that hour arrives awailing noise begins. This signals the departing year. Chil-dren run into their houses,slam the doors shut, and lock them. They lock the doors to keep frombeing carried away by the old year. They begin pounding on the doors creating even more noise. When all of the wailing begins to go away, the people open the doors, rush outside and greet the New Year!
