SCIENCE FAIR

We are finally finishing up science fair! Phew...what a relief! The kids have put in so much hard work and hopefully learned a lot about their project and also about the scientific process. Our science fair will be on Frida from 9-10. Feel free to come browse and ask the kids questions about what they learned!

Science Fair

This week students should be completing their real world situations. Then next week we will organize our binder together in class and complete a table of contents. Students will also need to put together their boards. I will show numerous examples in class so they understand the quality I am looking for in these boards. Boards can be purchased at Walmart, any office store and many other places. If you would rather make your own board, you can go to gas stations and ask for a large box and cut it. It has to be self-standing and have two sides that fold in. Students will know what it needs to look like.

JA Biz Town

The field trip to JA City Biztown will be such a great experience for our students. If you would like to know more about the experience you could log on to their website. I have put the link on the blog for you.

March 5th, 2009 is when we will be going to Biztown. We need several volunteers. We will be sending a letter home next week giving you all the dates for training, so you can let us know then if you are interested in participating.
