It was great to be back to school today. I was especially pleased by how well we were working during reading. We rocked out today and earned 5 class points! Continue to give your best effort in all you do!

Today we explored electric circuits using a battery, wire, and lightbulb. Share a scientific discovery from your experience today!

Today we had an awesome class party! Everyone was respectful towards each other and others possessions! My favorite game was The Michael Jackson Experience. What was your favorite part of our party?

I am looking forward to our next one. Twenty-three more points to go! Have a wonderful weekend!
