The sixth grade class has been working on a research project on ancient civilizations since earlier in the school year.
Their project resulted in a special culminating activity that involved all of the other Akiva students.
The other classrooms were invited to visit and to enter a “time machine” that would transport students to far away lands of long ago.
After exiting the “time machine”, students were issued passports and were sent to places such as Mesopotamia, Greece, India, Rome, China and Egypt.

Another Successful Science Fair !
At the end of March, Akiva Academy held the annual Science Fair, under the direction of Mrs. Katz, our science teacher. MUCH preparation went into this intense, but enjoyable science activity.
On the day of the Fair, students met individually with a pair of judges and had to explain their project and then answer whatever questions the judges might have. The students did a wonderful job exhibiting their knowledge of the various topics.
