Our first science lab!!!

This week we will finish our first science lab on poppers!!! Everyone is doing a great job! In the lab we are observing poppers and writing down our observations. For example, some kids wrote that the poppers were 3D, circular, and rubber. Everyone made great observations and our science lab was a sucess! I can't wait for our next project on Milk Weed Bugs!

AWESOME field trip!

The Blue Jays had a great field trip today! We enjoyed hiking, learning about local plants and animals, and participating in team building activities and games.

The kids were very respectful to the leaders and they worked well together to overcome the challenges put in front of them. They represented our school well.

STUDENTS: POST BACK AND TELL US ABOUT YOUR FAVORITE PART OF THE TRIP!

Great first week!

We finished our first week! Even though it was a short week, the students worked extra hard to accomplish all that we put in front of them. We worked on organizing our binders, setting up the composition books, and reviewing school policies and procedures. Next week, we will talk more specifically about the core content curriculum and the Montessori requirements. We will also introduce the student work plans and any upcoming projects.

Students will visit the library at school on Monday, so please encourage them to find a good book!

Have a wonderful weekend!
