Even though it felt like winter again today, 5th Grade took advantage of the gorgeous weather earlier this week by practicing drawing various instruments, music symbols, and other musical art that inspires us 🎶 . . . #MPSDK8 #artsintegration #SEL #chalkart #outdoormusicclass

Best start to the day 🥰 Today’s Advisory session of Drop Everything And Read was cozy, calming, and cathartic 📚 My favorite quote from our morning- “This feels like Kindergarten!” 🥹 Can we do this every week? 💗 #MPSDK8 #DropEverythingAndRead #ReadAcrossAmerica #DEAR

7th Graders recently learned about music from their families’ heritage. In addition to learning about some new singers and unique instruments from different parts of the world, some also got to learn more about their own ancestors’ roots. A memorable project for sure! #MPSDK8
