Week of September 9 - 13

Here's a look at what we did this week:

• Kindergarten: I got to meet my kinder friends this week! We talked about what scientists are and what they do, and what we might learn in Science Lab this year.
• 1st grade: We learned how to waft this week. Home extension: ask your student why it's important to waft in the lab. Allow your student to practice wafting in the kitchen while cooking!
• 2nd grade: We learned a bit more about science safety and tools by playing "What's in my Bag?" Home extension: ask your student why it's important to be safe in the lab and how we can be safe in the lab.
• 3rd grade: We discussed safety this week by playing a science safety game. Home extension: ask your student why it's important to be safe in the lab and how we can be safe in the lab.
•  4th grade: We discussed safety this week by participating in a QR code safety scavenger hunt.  Home extension: ask your student why it's important to be safe in the lab and how we can be safe in the lab.

Green Team permission slips were due today. If your child turned one into me, he/she should receive an "invitation" early next week. The first meeting of the Green Team is on Thursday, September 19. Pickup is at 3:20 at the east doors (by side car pick-up).
