It was a marvelous Monday in room 204! This morning we learned about how to form a perfect paragraph. We compared this to a yummy hamburger! We also started sharing our Me You See items. In the afternoon we experimented with how sound travels from pace to place. We experimented with aluminum foil, string and a meter stick. Tonight students have science homework for their tech summer project. Please read the directions detailed below for science.
Some of us have mail today!
*Please encourage your child to bring a water bottle to class so he/she does not have to leave class when thirsty!
