This day was wonderful! This morning we worked really hard writing our final draft of the “Me You See”. Tomorrow we will finish writing and begin drawing our pictures for this story. In the afternoon we did an experiment on making sounds with nails. We placed a small, medium and large nail onto a sponge and tested our predictions of the sounds. We tapped each nail with a pencil and recorded the sounds in audacity. Tomorrow we will take pictures of the nails and will upload the sounds and pictures to our wiki to share with you. Tomorrow is our last swim day!

We are excited to receive our new headphones for recording and listening. We would like to store each child's headphone in a gallon size pastic bag inside of each individual cubby. We would so appreciate a donation of gallon size plastic bags for the storage of our headphones. If you can make a donation, please send these bags to school with your child anyday. Any brand of gallon bags will be appreciated. Thanks greatly!

Please check your child's Blue Take Home Folder each day to check for mail, homework, and important information.
