Thank you.

Force and Motion
We have been focusing on force and motion in science. In class, we have been building and testing vehicles with wheels. Our past two ECO days have served as great opportunities to explore how sleds are designed to interact with snow. Students are learning about friction, gravity, mass, inertia, and how these interact.

The Week Ahead
This week will be filled with so many activities! Because this is such a busy week, we will not have spelling.
Monday: Among other things, we will begin typing essays on human body systems and also learn about puberty with Nurse Trees-ah.
Tuesday: Some things that we will do are rehearse on the stage for Wednesday's assembly, have literature circles, and finish the puberty unit.
Wednesday: We host two assemblies (8:30-8:50, 2-2:20) in the auditorium. Please come if you are able. Also, we have a big fundraiser for the Boston trip. Please contribute baked goods if you are able!
Thursday: The Green Mountain Youth Symphony Orchestra will play a concert for us. We will also work on our human body essays.
Friday: On our last day before vacation we will complete our essays. We will also have our 1000 HOOT celebration. Students chose their reward, and voted to have a dance party in the afternoon. Any snack donations for the event are welcomed.
It will be a busy, fun, and educational week!
