Tuesday January 13th

We started an experiment in the classroom today.  We will be looking at why calcium is so important to our bones.  We placed one chicken bone in a jar with vinegar and sealed it.  We placed a second chicken bone in a jar with nothing but air.  We will look at these bones again next week.  We started working on our rough images for our Heritage Stamps this afternoon.  We will continue with these through the week.

Homework:
 - library tomorrow
 - gym tomorrow
 - change of clothes if you haven't brought them 
 - home reading

Have a wonderful evening!

 Today we had a STEM challenge where the students were challenged to build a launcher for a bouncy ball.  Tomorrow we will go outside and test our builds.  We will be outside for a portion of the day tomorrow to complete a couple of activities (as long as it is not raining) so please make sure that you are dressed for the weather.  In the afternoon the students enjoyed a variety of Halloween activities.   Homework tonight:  - Have a safe and happy Halloween!  - Field Trip Permission Form
