Another week come and gone and now we're closing in on the end of February and welcoming March!....I'm so excited about it.  We've been so blessed with amazing weather lately, it's hard to remember that it's still winter, isn't it?  We built and launched our rockets this past week.  It was fun and I think we learned a lot about how good ideas need to be tested to see if they will work.  We didn't have any rockets that successfully launched but I know if we did it again, the kids would make changes to their designs and we would see some successes.  Several of you have asked about this quarter's book report- it will be due on April 2nd.  I'm looking forward to a great week!

 It's already February......

I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend.  We wrapped up the end of the quarter and most of us were glad to move on to new things and wrap up some units we've been working on.  We finished reading Brian's Winter (great book!) and we will begin a new novel later this week.  Our special chapel/Grandparent's Day/and Valentine party will all be on February 13th.  I will put a sign up sheet outside our door for parents who would like to bring party treats.  Remember that our boxes for Womenspace are due on Wednesday, Feb.11th.  In science we are going to do a fun STEM unit that will involve engineering and launching rockets.  Be sure to ask your student about it.  See you soon!
