Please make sure your child has sunscreen and wears clothes for the weather.

Science: This week we had a guest speaker and were able to look at plants through a microscope. We started comparing the life cycles of plants and animals. Students found many similarities between both plants and animals.  

Writing: This week we are finishing up our writing portfolios. Students are working hard to put all of their writings in order and to make books to take home. You should see them on the last day of school.
